    Can you try "Activating" one of the other printers using the Activate button? Do the other printers have "Machine Setting" button once they are activated?

    Yes, i can ativate printer. But i have also nothing in settings.
    For example if i add and activate Ultimaker Original - i have these menus (Cura 4.5)1450931574_.thumb.png.0fc6c82c8691aca0c8166a5907ee0e57.png

    Hi mnswamp did you resolve not being able to add a custom printer I’ve downloaded version 4.6.0. And 4.6.1 and again only Ultimaker printers in the add printer list no option to add custom printer or the fff one as per the user guide ?

    The display properties of Cura must be intended for people with really, really big monitors.  The scroll bars for that form are hidden/nearly invisible.  If you get right on the right edge of the window with the Ultimaker printers in it, you can eventually get the scroll bars to appear.  I'll try to get a screen grab off my other machine and post up.  

    Once you get the scroll bars to move, all the printers show up like you would expect.

    324540597_findprinter2.thumb.png.dc641bddcf52d6c1205a180f83a4a752.pngYou have to slide your mouse right along the right edge of the box until you can see the slider.  Once you know it's there, it isn't a big deal - and this works on other menu objects in Cura as well.

      • S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 was released Nov. 20th on the "Latest" firmware branch.
        (Sorry, was out of office when this released)

        This update is for...
        All UltiMaker S series  
        New features
         
        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.
