PCTG in PrusaSlicer filament profiles, but not in Core ONE firmware

When I run a filament that is defined in the slicer as PCTG, the Core ONE gives me a panic message that the wrong filament is loaded. PCTG is not an option in firmware.

The obvious workaround at this time to is define the filament type as PETG and just go. (It works fine.) This is going to be a pinch point for new users.

I have been doing some research on PCTG use cases and as a newbie to 3D printing, appreciate you bringing this to light. 👍🏻

RE:

You just have to change the downloaded pctg profile to petg

You can define PCTG as a "user" profile on the printer. I have done this on an MK4S and I think it works the same on a Core One.

See my previous post here: https://forum.prusa3d.com/forum/postid/751247/
I have taken some photos of the printer's screen for this in the post following the one in the link above.

Someone obviously quit reading the manual too early to go play with his new printer. <!embarrassed!>

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!
