Simplified User Interface
The new user interface in Ultimaker Cura is more adaptable to various types of users. The old control area is now displayed at the top. In the "Prepare" section, you can see the 3D model's appearance. The "Layer View" and "Preview View" that simulate the 3D printing process have been moved to the "Preview" section. The "Monitor" section allows you to monitor the printing progress of your Ultimaker printer.
The collapsible interface allows you to select options as needed, making the operation window larger and clearer. The "Recommended" mode at the bottom of the window provides quick and easy automatic parameter settings. Switching to "Custom" mode allows manual adjustment of over 300 slicing settings according to your needs, and all settings can be kept visible.
(The "Recommended" mode makes it easy to use default parameters.)
(Manual adjustments using "Custom" mode.)
The top right of the main interface now features a "Marketplace" option, allowing you to select available plugins and filament profiles. The filament category also includes website links, making it easier for users to obtain product descriptions and order.
User Login
The new Cura allows direct login to your Ultimaker account from the interface and access to Ultimaker Cloud features.
(Directly log in to your Ultimaker account.)
Backup
Work even when you're out of the office. Save your settings to the cloud for use on any computer, compatible with Windows, Mac, or Linux. Creating or restoring backup data requires an Ultimaker account and an internet connection. Each Ultimaker account currently supports five backups.
Remote Printing
After logging into your account in Ultimaker Cura, you can send and monitor print jobs from one end of the world to the other via Ultimaker Cloud. Currently, each account can link one Ultimaker printer.
*Note: This feature is only available for Ultimaker 3 and Ultimaker S5 printers with firmware 5.2 (to be released soon).
(Connect your printer to Ultimaker Cloud to link your work across the globe.)
Plugin Rating System
Have you ever used a plugin from the "Marketplace" to streamline your workflow? The new version allows you to view reviews and ratings for these plugins to quickly find suitable functions, and you can leave your insights and experiences. By providing plugin ratings, users can help each other find the most suitable tools and provide valuable feedback.
(Find the best tools faster and provide feedback to other users through plugin ratings.)
Ultimaker Cura 4.0 supports Windows, Mac, and Linux, and 14 languages, including English, German, and Chinese. Through an Ultimaker account, you can share and provide feedback on plugins.
