No settings are loaded from the machine. Cura is in control of them. In some cases settings do get sent to the machine, but never the other way around.
As for material temps; Materials have a "default" temperature. Certain qualities will modify them (and use the default temp as a base). Retraction is something that is overridden by the quality profile. Cura uses a "stack" approach to settings, so the top most setting holds the used value. As the quality (even though it depends on the material) is above the material, it's settings get overridden.
In the Cura 5.8 stable release, everyone can now tune their Z seams to look better than ever. Method series users get access to new material profiles, and the base Method model now has a printer profile, meaning the whole Method series is now supported in Cura!
We are happy to announce the next evolution in the UltiMaker 3D printer lineup: the UltiMaker Factor 4 industrial-grade 3D printer, designed to take manufacturing to new levels of efficiency and reliability. Factor 4 is an end-to-end 3D printing solution for light industrial applications
