  1. Hello, Much appreciate the reply. Yup, I tried all sorts of methods to create a new filament e.g. PETG-CF (carbon fiber) temps Noz 200-240 Bed 75-85 no manufacturer except for RoHS compliance. I was able to create it but as you already are aware it's 'Not Supported'. We, as non-Ultimaker users shouldn't be prevented from using any exotic filaments. As you said, we should be able to select a 'supported' filament, then, 'duplicate' that filament, then, amend the 'filament parameters' including the 'print settings' and bingo, there's your filament. Why does Cura have to 'validate' the filament used?? If during the 'add a printer' process I indicate my machine as a Creality CR10-S4 then Cura should know the 'basic' requirements of that printer and allow me to create any filament I choose. Adding a 'new' filament shouldn't such a frustrating ordeal. This problem has prevented me from printing some projects using special filaments. What a huge disappointment.
  2. Hello, I'm an intermediate 3D printer user and still learning. I have a Creality CR10-S4 3D printer. I downloaded Cura 5.1.0 for the first time and am having problems adding new material like my PLA+ from 3D fuel. First I added my printer from the drop-down list as a 'non-network' printer. Made sure all settings were correct. Then I succeeded in creating a new material for my PLA+ but keep getting a "NON SUPPORTED" message. I searched YT for a solution with no positive results. Either they're using older versions of Cura or 'importing profiles' different from mine. This 'non supported' message is very frustrating. I attached a photo of Cura pointing out my printer type, the 'Exclamation' point in the Material type and 'non supported' message, which I'm sure you are all familiar with. Any help in creating new filaments or resolving this issue would be appreciated.
