They sell multiple versions and I am trying to figure out the cheapest one that works for me.

The XYZ v2 can reset the counter but not set temps. Is this important to me since I can set the bed and filament temp via Simplify3d? What is the point of setting the temps in the cartridge anyway?

Is it expected that the Da Vinci 1.0 will be able to be retrofitted to print PLA or will I need to buy another printer? If it is not important to set the material type I won't need the XYZ v2 PLUS.

Thanks in advance. I hope that one day I can learn enough to answer questions, not just ask them.
