Topic: Davinci Jr - Tough PLA & PETG

Looking through the latest version of XYZ Maker and the Printing plugin, the material settings include ToughPLA and PETG. I think I saw ToughPLA before, but PETG seems new. It can't be used without a PETG encoded NFC Tag though. Has anyone figured out codes for either material?

Just saw that PETG is noe listed as compatible on the XYZ site, with a temp spec of 220. Not available to purchase yet though.

If it is 220 then it is another one of their special formulations and not regular PETG. The regular stuff has a temp of 230 to 250. I run mine at 255. None of XYZ's filaments are standard formulas. They all have a lower temp by about 10 degrees than standard materials.

Printing since 2009 and still love it!

I know the thread is a month old, but the PETG is now for sale on XYZ's website.
