Hi, I am currently wondering how I can print multicolor 3D objects with my “Ultimaker 2”. So far, I just found a product called “Spectrom”.It would be great to get some suggestions for an easy installation with at least 6 different colors. It is not an alternative to buy a color printer. Therefore, it has to be a solution addon. Thank you:)

    Look into a product called "mosaic". They are out of canada. It only works on 1.75mm filament but you can get a 1.75mm conversion kit from 3dsolex as well. They do I think only up to 4 colors. If 2 colors are enough look into the "mark 2 upgrade".]

    Usually multicolor printing is done by printing separate parts and connecting them together later. This is true of most things I find in Walmart as well.

        Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
