Printers disconnect all the time


Recommended Posts

Posted · Printers disconnect all the time

This has been a long standing problem with the S5's we have, they are all on ethernet. Frequently they disconnect and I have to manually enter an IP address to re-connect them, then I'm left with a long list of the same printer in the profile and CURA doesn't tell me which is the actual one that connects and works, so I have to spend ages figuring out which ones to delete.

 

This has been happening for years, will it ever get fixed?

    Sorry your having issues.

    This is usually related to something going on on your network or local computer..
    This very much is not a normal thing.

    Unfortunately, UltiMaker does not provide direct support via the community.

    Please contact UltiMaker Support directly.

    I would recommend including a machine log file from one of the S5 in question that disappears. 
    As well as your UlitMaker Cura Log file.
    Probably include a screenshot of UltiMaker Cura as well showing the duplicate machines.

      • 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.
