I seem to be stuck with an unloaded filament but can't convince Cura + firmaware to let me print. I had nylon loaded in #2. I've since disabled #2 to print some #1 PLA. If we drop down the printer, it knows there is nothing in #2:
However, I select that configuration (Whilte PLA + none), it doesn't take ... It still thinks there is nylon. This is also in spite of the extruder being disabled (I could go on at length at how bad Cura is when you have a single filament print but two things loaded ... like using the higher bed temp of the two, despite one of them being unused....). I select the config, and it remains convinced nylon is loaded. Then, if I print ...
Short of lying about nylon being loaded, I'm not even sure how to get it to print (though haven't tried that hard)
Basically I cannot convince Cura that nothing is loaded in #2
We don't often release an alpha version of Ultimaker Cura... So what's different this time? This Alpha contains such a huge slicing engine overhaul that we really need your help!
We wish to celebrate and honor the innovators that push forward the field, technology and world. We opted to not present it as a competition or ranked list. Every innovator has earned his spot on that list in their own way. We also look at the 3D printing industry as a whole and not limit the list to those only using Ultimaker.
