Topic: Third Party Filaments on a Da Vinci Jr. 1.0 after NFC reset?

Thanks to the new tools here I was finally able to reset my NFC cards for using up all of my extra filament. Now I'm wonder if it is possible to order another 1.75 mm pla filament to use with the Da Vinci with the print still working well. Has anyone else done it before? Thanks.

Yes it has been done before the whole goal of programming your own tags is to use off the shelf open filament.
The inland brand of filament from micro center works on my machines.

Thanks for the info! Just bought some filament off of amazon. I'm guessing that specialized filaments might not work (NinjaFlex) or can they work with the correct settings?

unless the machine is upgraded you need to stay within the physical limitations of the machine.
