He-he, "YIPPPPEEEEE" is not enough of the word... It is just like sci-fi came alive in front of me, it is unbelievable... To the best of my knowledge, the very first UM2 in Israel or among the very first ones, at least. I'm proud of myself.
Many thanks for the inputs, will certainly try them.
Leveling - yes, making leveling with flu fever is not going to get any good results. They should've mention this in the manual. :smile:
About the retraction - do you refer to these settings:
?
Would you recommend to put zeroes there?
What about speed/temperature? Are they good as they are?
Again, many thanks!
P.S. Just FYI - I left you a message a while again, still shows as "unread" by you... Maybe, just missed it.

first of all in my tame irish manner..... YIPPPPEEEEE you got your cool new ultimaker 2 !!!
yes I know i get over excited about these things but they make me very happy so why not...
so to your question
yes do your leveling again... that wont help that your pla cant get out of your nozzle on the left and then drop everything down on the right... that wont help. easy thing to reallign in your setup.
little tip, screw all 3 screws of the bed clockwise so they are up.
then do the setup. and screw anticlockwise down a tiny bit so you get your paper thickness.
that should help
About the under extrusion between openings... my friend Iv had enough fun with this.
The problem is, the standard rate of retraction is a little to high for this type of printing.
try either lowering the amount and distance of retraction that goes on. Cura settings !!
or option 2... turn off retraction all together, you will get much better print quality and after the print. just take a sharp knife and cut the tiny treads away in about 1 second... thats what i do often so i know the walls are 100 percent perfect !
