Is there a limit to the UM2 firmware, with respect to the heated printing plate?

it should not.. perhaps you have an old heating plate i can't speak for those, but i have 2 UM2's running with the new plate (with the big black connector on the bottom) and they can both achieve 110 degrees celsius..
The full stable release of UltiMaker Cura 5.4 is here and it makes it easier than ever to remove brims and supports from your finished prints. UltiMaker S series users can also look forward to print profiles for our newest UltiMaker PET CF composite material!

It also depends on your location; If there is a lot of draft or cold room temperature, your bed won't reach the highest possible temperature.
MCguyvering a enclosure with cardboard already helps quite a bit.

There is a maximum temperature set in Marlin:
https://github.com/Ultimaker/Ultimaker2Marlin/blob/master/Marlin/Configuration.h#L169
#define BED_MAXTEMP 200
However, the bed will not reach more than about 100-110 C easily, unless you build a housing for the printer.
I have a fairly old UM2 and it can reach about 100 C if the room where I keep it is 20 C.
