Um 3 Extended firmware Recovery with a white Mainboard without a SD card Slot

· Um 3 Extended firmware Recovery with a white Mainboard without a SD card Slot
Hi Ronald,
all UM3 printers have a white "Ulticontroller" board at the front side, a white "Electronics" board or mainboard, placed at the rear right, next to the power inlet and power switch, and the red "Olimex" board, placed at the rear left, next to the ethernet connector.
For exact placement of the Olimex board refer to this helpful article, provides by @fbrc8-erin:
(This article shows the procedure of excanging the Olimex board which is NOT necessary for firmware recovery, it's just to show where the board is and which screws have to be unscrewed for removing the cover)
So your printer MUST have the red olimex board, or it isn't a real UM3(E).
To prevent any damage, I strongly recommend to stick to the instructions literally or ask someone, who really knows what he(she)'s doing, for help.
If my speech was a bit harsh, it's no offense, just the attempt to prevent any damage of your printer.
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
