==Consumer-impact summary==
'''UltiMaker''' is a 3D printer manufacturing company based in the Netherlands, with offices and assembly lines in the US. They make fused filament fabrication 3D printers, develop 3D printing software, and sell branded 3D printing materials.


=== UltiMaker Cloud/Digital Factory requirement for 3D printers ===
==Consumer impact summary==
UltiMaker's only way of networking the UltiMaker 2+ Connect (and possibly the UltiMaker 3) is through UltiMaker Cloud/Digital Factory. This means if UltiMaker Cloud goes down, you cannot remotely manage your UltiMaker printers. UltiMaker's solution is that you "use a USB to print" however this is time consuming as you have to wait up to 10 minutes for the file to be transferred from the USB to the printer's internal SD card. It also makes using these printers in a school network where there is a firewall that could be blocking UltiMaker's services a lot harder. There is no LAN control for these printers.
