Can someone explain why there is so much decrease on the right side of the build volume (see picture)?

 

Settings:

Extruder 2 is disabled.

Build Plate Adhesion is None

No Prime blob,

Zero Travel distance

    A physical limitation to the UM3. The left nozzle can print all the way to the left edge, the right nozzle can print all the way to the right edge. The decrease you see on the right part is the distance between both nozzles, I think about 15mm. Perhaps you can modify your model so it prints the right part with the right nozzle?

     

    To remove this limitation the housing for the S3/S5 printers was made wider so the printhead can move the extra distance.

        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.
