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.-

I think that is way to thin to print with FDM, and you will not get the material properties you are after by directly printing this. What you could do is use FDM printing to create prototype formers for vacuum forming (eg https://mayku.me/formbox)

I ended up using UltiMaker Polypropylene Natural for my prints.
Images of a section of the part printed to check for function and fit. Wall section is 0.5mm. I had to use a gyroidal support pattern of 80%, and also a support interface for roof and floor. The default zig zag support didn't work where the paths crossed over each other due to the material being so soft that the crossing layer pushed the lower layer out of position.
