10	In Ultimaker 2 and 2+ you can manually adjust the material settings for each print. However, in the Ultimker 3s, they pushed more of the material settings to be set in Cura instead. When you select the material on an Ultimaker 3, you are really only choosing the nozzle temperature - setup your material in Cura!

13	PLA	210	60	enabled	100	80 mm/s is usually fine	100	10.5mm compressed	For most models a clean and well calibrated build plate is enough. Large models may require brim and a thin layer of glue (glue stick) on the build plate.		https://ultimaker.com/en/resources/22225-how-to-print-with-ultimaker-pla
14	FPE45D	220	100	disabled	30	50 mm/s?	100	12mm compressed	It is important to use brim and a thick layer of glue (glue stick) otherwise the model will not stick tothe build plate.
15	NINJAFLEX	235	45	disabled	50	30 mm/s (this is slow!)	100	13.5mm compressed	For most models a clean and well calibrated build plate is enough. Large models may require brim and the thin layer of glue (glue stick) on the build plate.	works best with 0.8mm nozzle	https://ninjatek.com/products/filaments/ninjaflex/
