Hey @dma_k,

 

That's a impressive model 😄

I would change 3 things seeing your settings:
1. 
Support Placement; Touching Buildplate

2. Infill Support; Disabled
3. Support interface; Disabled

That will make a much better printjob. No floating pieces of support.
Good luck printing 💪 Will you let us know how it turns out?

    Thanks for suggestion @MariMakes, in general I agree with you. My initial idea was to save on filament for infill. So I started to play with Gradual infill steps  but I coudn't get a feeling how it works. If I set Infill Pattern = Tri-Hexagon, Gradual Infill Steps = 10, then it generates a lot of infill lines in the air:

    I think that should not happen.

      • 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.
