ATTENTION: Material does not match error
Hi, I am new to 3D printing and just bought the CORE ONE. My first three prints came out awesome, and I ran out of filament, so I bought some more. Now when I pick something to print, I get this announcement for every print. I am going from the slicer to the connect every time. Now if I download the file from my PC to the flash drive the printer works fine. Not sure what happened but I have yet to do any changes (personal settings). Can anyone guide me on what I can do to fix this.
Thank you

You probably selected different material when loading it into printer. Or you are slicing models with different material selected.

Thank you @Biomech. I will double check on that possible problem I may have created. But let's just say if it says PLA on the file and I want to print it with PETG. Would I be able to just change it in the slicer or would I have too also change the G code as well?
RE: ATTENTION: Material does not match error
You have to change it in the slicer and generate new gcode for PETG.

If you are using non-Prusament filament, how do you make the sliced filament match the printer filament?
I am using Econofil PLA and have created the setting in the slicer, and created a new filament in the printer.
RE: ATTENTION: Material does not match error
So when you slice a filament on the slicer you will select a filament but you will also select a filament when you load a new filament on the printer itself. You will get a conflict warning if they don't match.
In the case of creating a customer filament profile because the slicer doesn't have one, you can do this but it involves calibrating certain settings and is time consuming. Quite often though a one of the defaults will work. I usually just pick a prusa profile for any filament that I'm running and generally they work well enough.

Thanks for taking the time to reply. I'll try it out.
