=== Rapid filament vs. Regular filament ===
*Printing with normal PETG: can get weak layer adhesion at 240C nozzle temp, although the print will look completely fine. Printing normal PETG at 260C (can do 255 or even 250 if you dare) resulted in strong layer adhesion and the prints came out fine
*Printing with rapid PETG: seems to be fine at 240C, but the profiles are set up for 245C just to ensure strong layer adhesion because the K1 is really cranked up to the max speed lol, the future!!! Printing the rapid PETG at 260C resulted in droopy overhangs and more stringing.
