From what I've gathered hanging around here, none of the Ultimaker printers use Print by USB anymore and so it hasn't been changed or fixed in years. Eventually you will run into the "M1" problem that stops a print and requires a quick button click to resume. If the restart click isn't within 2 minutes the steppers time out and lose position. Even if you resume within the 2 minutes the print head has been stuck on the print making a serious mark. Pronterface has the exact same problem. It appears (so far) that Octoprint/PI doesn't suffer from the problem. Print from the SD card. You already own everything you need and there's no learning curve.
We are happy to announce the next evolution in the UltiMaker 3D printer lineup: the UltiMaker Factor 4 industrial-grade 3D printer, designed to take manufacturing to new levels of efficiency and reliability. Factor 4 is an end-to-end 3D printing solution for light industrial applications
Cura 5.7 is here and it brings a handy new workflow improvement when using Thingiverse and Cura together, as well as additional capabilities for Method series printers, and a powerful way of sharing print settings using new printer-agnostic project files! Read on to find out about all of these improvements and more.
