Increase the productivity of your 3D printing workflow with Ultimaker Firmware 6.5<\/h1><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n

An update for Ultimaker S-line printers, Firmware 6.5 helps to improve your 3D printing workflow, as we introduce more streamlined troubleshooting and error handling, and the ability to import material profiles from USB. And with this release, Material Station users will enjoy even better material handling, with more reliability.<\/p><\/div>\n

For more on how Firmware 6.5 makes material handling and troubleshooting quicker and easier, watch the video below and scroll down for more on each feature.<\/p><\/section>\n

Import material profiles from USB<\/h2>\n

If you have been 3D printing with 3rd-party materials but haven\u2019t installed the material profile to your printer, you can now install them via USB. This is especially useful if you print offline and don\u2019t synchronize across your network.<\/p><\/section>\n

To import material profiles to your printer via USB, simply slice your print job in Ultimaker Cura with the third party material profile and save it to USB. If you then select Import Material Profiles from the Settings menu, your printer will scan the USB for unknown material profiles and install them. This makes your printing workflow much easier, as the printer will then automatically recognize these profiles for future prints.<\/p>\n

Improved error handling for all users<\/h2>\n

With the release of Firmware 6.5, we have improved the error handling of ER998. This expands on improvements made in Firmware 6.4, that introduced a Reboot button for errors that required a printer reboot.<\/p><\/section>\n

\"firmware-6-5-reboot-error-screen\"<\/figure><\/div><\/div>\n

Error 998 causes the touchscreen software to freeze \u2013 sometimes during printing. Rebooting the printer solves the problem, but also stops printing. But with this firmware release, you will no longer need to completely reboot your machine. Instead, you can reboot the touchscreen alone by clicking on the Refresh button that will automatically appear.<\/p>\n
