Posted · Error: "Trying to print outside printable area" - How to align Cura with the UM2+ printer settings

Hi, 

 

I have an Ultimaker 2+ with the below Cura settings:

  • X (width): 223 mm
  • Y (Depth): 223 mm
  • Z (Height): 205 mm

 

I'm trying to print multiple parts and want to maximise the area. I'm printing without any adhesion (brim, skirt etc) and support. Cura is showing that all parts are within the printable area, but when I try to print it from the SD-card I get the error "Trying to print outside printable area".  This happens also if I manually move the parts "well within" the boundaries in Cura.

 

How can I ensure that Cura is using the same boundaries as the printer is applying so that I don't get this error. 

 

Appreciate any help and support.

        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.
