3D printer filament settings, from the manufacturer

Recommended nozzle and bed temperatures, print speed, enclosure and drying — for 21 popular filaments across 6 materials and 7 brands. Every number is sourced from the maker's own data sheet, with a date. No guesses, no fabricated specs.

Every setting below is the filament manufacturer's own published recommendation, with a source link and the date we last verified it. Numbers are starting points: your printer, nozzle size, slicer, and ambient conditions all shift the ideal value. Always run a temperature tower on a new spool.
