Nozzle and bed temperature by material
PLAnozzle 190-220°C, bed 50-60°C (or unheated with good adhesion)
PETGnozzle 220-250°C, bed 70-80°C. Runs meaningfully hotter than PLA and is notably more prone to stringing, often needing more retraction tuning to print cleanly
ABSnozzle 230-260°C, bed 95-110°C, ideally with an enclosure
TPU (flexible)nozzle 210-230°C, bed 30-60°C, printed slowly
Nylonnozzle 240-270°C, bed 70-90°C
