Discussion Groups:
These profiles are based on a quality/speed balance (Universal). Good prints without sacrifice the speed. Make sure you have a good leveled printer and bed.
NOTE: Fine tune the start gcode for your printer! This is very important since i can't provide a all case profile for every modification and printer.
Modify at your needs.
