Re: Settings for TPU

I've looked through the most recent PrusaControl and don't see any flexible or similar materials. You're probably better off using Slic3r for flexibles for now.

Re: Settings for TPU

As a starting point, use Slic3r and modify the generic PLA profile to tweak the temperature and limit the volumetric flow rate to around 5 mm^3/sec.

You will probably have to experiment with it a bit because TPUs vary quite a lot. The main thing is the flow rate limitation. The harder the TPU you're using, the higher the flow rate you can use.
