Hi there,

I am from Mississauga. When I got it they only shipped from the Netherlands so it was pricey, but what you need to worrry about is duties, which is around 400 bucks for a UM2. I imagine shipping will be better now though since it's coming from memphesis instead of the Netherlands. Also beware of lower canadian dollar.

I have 3 UM's here, and I've never had to send them back for servicing. I hear they are switching over some support software so it's been kinda slow/unresponsive for tickets but illuminarti is usually always responsive (he takes care of the North American folks). I usually post on the forums and fix it myself which has been working well for me.

I usually order my filament from Voxel factory in montreal. But most recently, I've got it from these guys: http://filaments.ca/%20Service%20for%20both%20companies%20is%20really%20fast.%20Voxel%20has%20better%20prices,%20but%20beware%20the%20generic%20brand%20of%20filament%20they%20have%20their%20is%20ACTUAL%203.0mm%20and%20not%202.85%20which%20can%20be%20tighter%20than%20normal.%20(but%20still%20usable,%20just%20not%20ideal.)

Welcome!

      • 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.
