Ultimaker S3 and Ultimaker S5 user manual 25
5.1 Update the firmware
Periodically, a new version of the Ultimaker S3 / S5 firmware is released. To ensure that your Ultimaker S3 / S5 is
equipped with the latest features it is recommended to keep the firmware updated to the latest version.
Update over the network
If the Ultimaker S3 / S5 is connected to a network, it automatically checks for available firmware updates. When
a new firmware is available, the printer will prompt you to download and install it via the touchscreen interface.
Alternatively, check for updates manually by navigating to System → Maintenance → Update firmware.
Do not power off the printer during the firmware installation.
Update using a USB stick
If your Ultimaker S3 / S5 is not connected to a network, you can update to the latest firmware via USB. The firmware
files are found on the Ultimaker website:
1. Navigate to ultimaker.com/firmware , and select your printer
2. Download the firmware image and store it in the root directory of your USB stick
3. Insert the USB stick into the USB port of the printer
4. Go to Preferences → Maintenance → Update firmware and select the new firmware in the update menu
5.2 Material handling and storage
Opened material spools must be stored properly when not in use. If material is stored incorrectly, it may affect its
quality and usability.
The optimal storage temperature for PLA, Tough PLA, Nylon, CPE, CPE+, PC, TPU 95A, PP, and Breakaway is between
-20 to +30 °C. For ABS, the advised temperature is between 15 and 25 °C, and for PVA 0 to 30 °C. Furthermore,
a relative humidity of below 50% is recommended for PVA, TPU 95A, PP, and Breakaway. If these materials are
exposed to a higher humidity, the quality of the material can be affected.
To keep your materials in optimal condition, opened spools should be stored:
• Cool and dry
• Out of direct sunlight
• In a resealable bag
To minimize moisture absorption, store the material in a resealable bag including the supplied desiccant (silica
gel) directly after printing.
