Confirm that the glass build plate is installed
For the first use, it is recommended to print with the materials delivered with the printer: Tough PLA and PVA. In
this step of the welcome setup, you must confirm that you have installed the glass build plate.
A thin layer of glue should be applied to the glass build plate to ensure reliable adhesion.
Print core installation
Print cores
The Ultimaker S3 / S5 uses two print cores in the print head, which are interchangeable. There are three
types of print cores:
• Type AA: for printing build materials and Ultimaker Breakaway material
• Type BB: for printing water-soluble support material
• Type CC: for printing composite materials
Each Ultimaker S3 / S5 comes with two print cores AA 0.4 (one is already installed in print head slot 1) and one print
core BB 0.4. This means that it is possible to print with two build materials or with a build and support material.
The print cores contain information on a small chip, so that the printer always knows which print cores are installed
and which materials can be used with this print core.
Install the second print core
During the welcome setup, the second print core must be installed. To do this, go to Print core 2 and select Start.
Follow the steps on the Ultimaker S3 / S5:
1. Carefully open the glass door(s) and the print head fan bracket and press Confirm
2. Install the second print core (BB 0.4) in print head slot 2 by squeezing the levers of the print core and sliding it
into the print head until you hear a click
