The printer will come with 2 AA 0.4 cores and one BB 0.4 core.
The BB core's are for PVA only. The AA cores are for everything except PVA and abrasive filaments.
I recommend avoiding the BB 0.8 core which wastes/uses a lot more PVA (PVA is more expensive). It's okay to have an AA 0.8 core on the left and a BB 0.4 core on the right. Cura can handle this no problem.
Abrasive filaments should be avoided for people new to 3d printing but include: Cabron filled filaments, Fiberglass filled filaments, Steel filled filaments and glowfill.
Most filaments are not abrasive (PLA, TPLA, ABS, Nylon, PP, CPE, PETG, TPU, PVA, PC).
