 ===== Materials =====
+See [[3dprinters#Approved filaments]]
 The printer can operate using PLA or ABS filament, with a 2.85mm diameter (sometimes sold as 3mm). PLA is preferred as it is cleaner to work with. If you wish to print with ABS then additional ventilation will be required to deal with styrene fumes.

 Download the Cura software from: http://software.ultimaker.com/
+**Try not to let Cura update the firmware on the printer to the official one, as the upgraded extruder requires TinkerGnome.** See below if this happens.
+===== Firmware =====
+Due to the improved extruder, this printer has been upgraded to TinkerGnome Marlin. If cura has updated the firmware to the official UM2 release, you'll have to reinstall TinkerGnome from https://github.com/TinkerGnome/Ultimaker2Marlin/releases.
