Every print has challenges. This one isn't too bad. Please show photo and settings. Show all 6 retraction settings. Also speed and temperature and layer height.

    1) did you stop it early? Or did it stop printing?

    2) Try these settings:

    Change shell thickness from "1,2" to "0.8". (1,2 = 1 which is bad. 1.2 is okay also)

    Change speed to 20mm/sec (if you want beauty you need to print slow).

    Change layer height from ".25" to ".1"

    Change temperature from "210" to "190" (this might be too low but try it anyway - it should be okay)

    Change support type to "none".

    Change fill density from "20" to "0" (for this part only - most parts I use "20")

    In expert/expert settings under "retraction" change "minimum travel" to 0 and change "minimal extrusion before retracting" to 0 also. This is important. "combing" doesn't matter for this part - I always leave this checked.

    If the part doesn't stick to the bed well, try printing the first layer at 230C and then the remaining layers at 190C. Also your first layer is too high off the bed so raising the bed a quarter turn of all 4 bed leveling screws would help a small amount. This is not critical.

    Try this and post another picture.

    Note that you only showed 3 of the retraction settings. There were more in the "expert" "expert settings" which I mention in my post above.

    This may be down to regional settings. For example here in Sweden we use a comma rather than a dot as a decimal mark and on my end both seem to work just fine.

    But he mixed his settings - some used "." and some used ",". Can you do that? I just checked. It works fine. So "1,2" is fine.

    Open a ticket with Ultimaker support at http://support.ultimaker.com

    Try disconnecting the AC power cord for 30 seconds and reconnect. It has a failsafe circuit that can cause problems. Also consider removing the Arduino from the electronics board and connect directly to the Arduino board. Try installing the firmware again directly to the arduino. The USB cable will power the Arduino.

    You probably need a new Arduino. A very inexpensive part.

    What country are you in? Can you update your profile?

    I think its a story that's trying to seem relevant by mentioning 3D printing in a context that is really nothing to do with 3D printing. What makes the liability issue unclear is not the fact that the part was 3D printed, but that it was made by a non-corporation, operating on a non-commercial basis. Which is something that someone has always been able to do, with or without 3D printers.

    The article is specific to US law, and in any case, I can't imagine many cases where (home) 3D printed parts would be likely to directly cause injury, given the current state of the technology, although I expect we'll get there before too long. But still, the issue is with bad laws, not 3D printing.

      • 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.
