Hi everyone, 

I have been doing some hours on my UMO+ recently (I know it's old) but have had print stop at the initial layers because of filament messes such as the one attached. I have disabled retraction but the problem still persists. @neotko or anyone else, would you have any suggestions to the prevention of this problem?

    Can you post a picture of your print head where we can see the nozzle and the parts above?

    And what about the fan for the heatsink, is it running when the nozzle heats up?

    The picture is not helpful to check the upper part of the nozzle.

     

    But when you say the fan is disabled, what do you mean with disabled? The fan for the heat sink cannot be disabled in Cura and should start automatically. If this fan is not working, you found already the reason for your problem.

        (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.
