· How does Initial Layer Speed differ from Initial Layer Print Speed?
Mother and two daughters.
The mother is Initial Layer Speed. The daughters are Initial Layer Print Speed and Initial Layer Travel Speed. The Initial Layer Print Speed is what you will get in the gcode file for speed during extrusions on Layer0.
{speed_layer_0} Initial Layer Speed The speed for the initial layer. A lower value is advised to improve adhesion to the build plate. Does not affect the build plate adhesion structures themselves, like brim and raft.
{speed_print_layer_0} Initial Layer Print Speed The speed of printing for the initial layer. A lower value is advised to improve adhesion to the build plate.
"Initial Layer Print Speed" can be linked or be a different number than what is in the "Initial layer Speed" box. Maybe "Initial Layer Speed" shouldn't have a settings box and be just a heading for the other two settings? The number may be used somewhere else though.

S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 was released Nov. 20th on the "Latest" firmware branch.
(Sorry, was out of office when this released)
This update is for...
All UltiMaker S series
New features
Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
A year after the merger of Ultimaker and MakerBotQQ, we have unlocked the ability for users of our Method series printers to slice files using UltiMaker Cura. As of this release, users can find profiles for our Method and Method XL printers, as well as material profiles for ABS-R, ABS-CF, and RapidRinse. Meaning it’s now possible to use either Cura or the existing cloud-slicing software CloudPrint when printing with these printers or materials

This is from FieldOfView's (AHoeben's) page on the Cura replacement patterns:
{speed_layer_0} Initial Layer Speed The speed for the initial layer. A lower value is advised to improve adhesion to the build plate. Does not affect the build plate adhesion structures themselves, like brim and raft.
{speed_print_layer_0} Initial Layer Print Speed The speed of printing for the initial layer. A lower value is advised to improve adhesion to the build plate.
