Hi, it's not a problem with it not powering on, it was powered off (at the switch on the back of the printer) and have been told it started doing something on it's own for a short time. Without any interaction from anyone or the power switched being moved to 'On'

The only thing a S5 does "on its own" with the power switch off is lowering the bed; actually gravity does that. The induced current by the z-motor could result in some flickering. For sure it does nothing else as that power switch is a mechanical switch. If it still has power, then something would be wrong with the switch.
The only other, very unlikely, explanation is that it is haunted by a 👻 😉

Haha, yes, I updated the first post to say it was a false alarm !!, turns out when the person in question said 'printer' they meant inkjet not 3d printer!!!!! 😄😄😄😄

Ultimaker Innovators list 2020
SandervG posted a topic in Official news,
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.-

It is part of the start-up routine that the printer enables the frame light and disables it again. Finally, the printer should be ready and have the lights enabled/disabled according settings. If it goes completely off, check the power cord and if that is ok, contact your reseller if the problem persists.
