My S5 printer feeder1 is not feeding during print process,  even though the print head is going through the motions.   The stepper motor is working since it does load and unload the filament properly.   I have the latest firmware installed as of June 6 2023.     The printer is the one with the robot picture on the side.   From the tag, the model number is 202256,  serial number is BPP-015821-056631. 

I tried to submit a ticket but could not-  there was an error message on the website. 

 

I tried making feeder 2 and print head 2  active (disabling feeder 1 from Cura) and printing from there but the Cura software does not allow that.  WHY???? any way to bypass this?

    Sorry you were having issues opening a ticket.
    The submission form was down for about an hour - looks like you were one of the people affected by that.
    Very sorry about that 😥

    Please try opening a ticket again, UltiMaker does not provide direct support via the community.
    Also please include your machine log file for this issue.

        (Sorry, was out of office when this released)

        This update is for...

        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.
