|---|---|---|---|
| PLA | 190–220°C | 35–60°C | Most forgiving material |
| PETG | 230–250°C | 70–85°C | Prone to stringing; use glue on cool plate |
| ABS | 240–260°C | 90–110°C | Requires enclosure; ventilate fumes |
| ASA | 245–265°C | 90–110°C | Like ABS with better UV resistance |
| TPU | 220–240°C | 35–45°C | Print slowly; no retraction or minimal |
| Nylon (PA6) | 240–270°C | 70–90°C | Must be dry; hygroscopic |
| PC | 280–310°C | 100–120°C | X2D or H2S; needs 55–65°C chamber |
