U.2 Make sure there is sufficient correct filament on the spool&lt;br /&gt;
U.3 Turn on UltiMaker (power switch is in back on left)&lt;br /&gt;
U.4 Insert SD card (SD card must be left in until print is finished)&lt;br /&gt;
U.5 Select PRINT by turning dial&lt;br /&gt;
U.6 Press dial&lt;br /&gt;
U.7 Select desired file by turning dial&lt;br /&gt;
U.8 Press dial&lt;br /&gt;
U.9 Wait for printer to start and make sure it is printing properly&lt;br /&gt;

Leveling:&lt;br /&gt;
L.1 Turn on power switch in back if it is off&lt;br /&gt;
L.2 Select MAINTENANCE by turning dial&lt;br /&gt;
L.3 Press dial&lt;br /&gt;
L.4 Select BUILD-PLATE by turning dial&lt;br /&gt;
L.5 Press dial&lt;br /&gt;
L.6 Select CONTINUE by turning dial&lt;br /&gt;
L.7 Press dial&lt;br /&gt;
L.8 Turn knob under front right corner of bed below printhead until there is about a 1 mm gap between the tip of the printhead and the bed&lt;br /&gt;
L.9 Press dial&lt;br /&gt;
L.10 Turn knob under back center of bed below printhead until there is about a 1 mm gap between printhead tip &amp;amp; bed&lt;br /&gt;
L.11 Press dial&lt;br /&gt;
L.12 Turn knob under front left of bed below printhead until there is about a 1 mm gap between printhead tip &amp;amp; bed&lt;br /&gt;
L.13 Press dial&lt;br /&gt;
L.14 Slide a sheet of paper between printhead and bed (front right) then adjust knob until paper binds very slightly&lt;br /&gt;
L.15 Press dial&lt;br /&gt;
L.16 Slide the paper between printhead &amp;amp; bed (center back) and adjust knob until paper binds very slightly&lt;br /&gt;
L.17 Press dial&lt;br /&gt;
L.18 Slide the paper between printhead &amp;amp; bed (front left) and adjust knob until paper binds very slightly&lt;br /&gt;
L.19 Press dial&lt;br /&gt;
L.20 Slide the paper between printhead &amp;amp; bed (front right) again and adjust knob if needed so paper binds very slightly.&lt;br /&gt;
L.21 Press dial&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(Instructions for changing the filament have been deleted since they are outdated because the extruder has been replaced)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Calibrating the filament feed rate&lt;br /&gt;
R.1 Connect the USB port on a tabletop computer to the port on the Ultimaker with the appropriate cable&lt;br /&gt;
R.2 Login: hacdc&lt;br /&gt;
R.3 At Password: enter standard password&lt;br /&gt;
R.4 If the MATE Terminal icon is on the screen double click on it and skip R.5-R.7&lt;br /&gt;
R.5 Click on Applications (top left)&lt;br /&gt;
R.6 Select System Tools&lt;br /&gt;
R.7 Click on MATE Terminal&lt;br /&gt;
R.8 pronterface&lt;br /&gt;
R.9 Click on downward arrowhead under &amp;amp; just to right of help (at top)&lt;br /&gt;
R.10 Click on 250000 (connection speed)&lt;br /&gt;
R.11 Click on Connect&lt;br /&gt;
R.12 Heat: 185&lt;br /&gt;
R.13 If the nozzle is close to the bed or a print: move z 20&lt;br /&gt;
R.14 Wait for the nozzle to heat to around 185 C&lt;br /&gt;
R.15 Mark the filament at a known distance from where it enters the feed mechanism (i.e., 120 mm)&lt;br /&gt;
R.16 Extrude - At Length: enter a distance somewhat smaller than the mark (i.e., 100 mm)&lt;br /&gt;
R.17 Click on Extrude&lt;br /&gt;
R.18 Wait until the Ultimaker finishes extruding&lt;br /&gt;
R.19 If the mark has entered the feed mechanism repeat steps R.15-R.19 with a longer distance to the mark&lt;br /&gt;
R.20 Measure the distance from the mark to where the filament enters the feed mechanism (i.e., 22.4 mm)&lt;br /&gt;
R.21 Repeat R.15-R.20 using the same distance to the mark &amp;amp; Length:; if the result is the same skip R.22-R.24&lt;br /&gt;
R.22 Follow the instructions at If the filament is not feeding properly: in ins3DUltiprob.txt&lt;br /&gt;
R.23 Repeat R.15-R.20&lt;br /&gt;
R.24 Repeat R.15-R.20 again with the same distance to the mark &amp;amp; Length:; if the result is not the same STOP and get expert help&lt;br /&gt;
R.25 Subtract the distance to the mark from the oringinal distance to determine how much filament was actually extruded (i.e., 120-22,4 = 97.6 mm)&lt;br /&gt;
R.26 At bottom right left of Send: M503&lt;br /&gt;
R.27 Click Send&lt;br /&gt;
R.29 Find the line that starts echo: M92 &amp;amp; note the number after E at the end of this line (i.e., 2158.32)&lt;br /&gt;
R.29 Multiply this number by the value of Length: (i.e., 2158.32 x 100 = 215832)&lt;br /&gt;
R.30 Divide the result by the actual length of filament used (i.e., 215832 / 97.6 = 2211.39); this is the new value for E&lt;br /&gt;
R.31 M92 E# where # is the new value (i.e., M92 E2211.39)&lt;br /&gt;
R.32 Click Send&lt;br /&gt;
R.33 M503&lt;br /&gt;
R.34 Click Send&lt;br /&gt;
R.35 Verify that E has the new value (i.e., E2211.39)&lt;br /&gt;
R.36 Repeat R.15-R.20 with a longer length (i.e., mark at 205 &amp;amp; extrude 200)&lt;br /&gt;
R.37 Subtract the distance to the mark from the original distance to the mark to determine how much filament was extruded&lt;br /&gt;
R.38 If the actual length is correct skip R.39; if it is way off STOP &amp;amp; get expert help (if help is not available set Heat: to off or turn off Ultimaker)&lt;br /&gt;
R.39 Repeat R.26-R.35&lt;br /&gt;
R.40 M500&lt;br /&gt;
R.41 Click Send; the screen should state that the new value was stored in EEPROM&lt;br /&gt;
R.42 Heat: Click on Off&lt;br /&gt;
