This happens a few times when I open Cura and I'm not sure why. The build plate size is square and not filling up the whole space. There's a huge part that's cut off on the right side. It's supposed to fill up the whole build plate. I have the most recent version of Cura and I'm not sure what settings would have caused this and I don't know how to permanently solve it.

    This is due to the UM2+ only having one nozzle on the LHS of the print head. This makes it not possible for it to print all the way to the RHS edge of the bed

    Well that makes sense. I'm not sure why I remember it looking different, maybe the update changed how it looked and I thought something went wrong.

      • Release Notes: S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 (Latest)

        Dustin posted a topic in Firmware,

        S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 was released Nov. 20th on the "Latest" firmware branch.
        (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.
