    I was about to post the same result with my UM3. I got my TPU from Matterhackers.

    I did a dozen small test prints to dial in the settings to something semi acceptable, then went to do a larger print and I got the same result. Not sure what's going on here but something tells me that the filament gets compressed inside the bowden tube, then the tension gets released by a sudden expansion, a bit of the filament gets extruded, then it's getting compressed again and the flow stops. That's my current theory.

    Edit: I see the i3 also has a bowden tube. 😕

      • Release Notes: S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 (Latest)

        Dustin posted a topic in Firmware,

        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.
