Recover file

[Magnamaster 0]

Hello,
Is it possible to get the file out of the history from the printer?
The file is gone from my computer and need to make changes to it.
I have read about the API but only get to the home screen.
Will not enter Print_jobs/gcode.
The printer in question is the Ultimaker S5 Pro

[gr5 2,235]

I don't know but I strongly suspect all print jobs are stored for a while on the S5's "hard drive" (it's a solid state drive).  It can store hundreds of print jobs.

 

So I would ssh into the printer.  Are you good with ssh and linux?  If not do you know someone who is?  So put the printer in "developer mode" (it's an option in the menus somewhere).  Once you've done that the ip address of the printer will appear.  ssh to that address with username/password root/ultimaker.

 

I'd then do a "df" to find the large, mostly empty drive.  The operating system and firmware are on one partition, there is a tiny boot partition, and then the biggest partition is called "user" or something like that.  There should be very little there - just a handful of files.  But also possibly material profiles and print jobs.

 

I could be wrong about all this but I strongly suspect your file is there.

 

Once you find the file you can exit the printer and use scp to copy the file to your own computer.
