Does anyone have good settings for the Retro Platinum PLA on a BambuLab P1S? Mine does not adhere to the bed (or even well to itself) when I use the Bambu PLA settings.

I had some similar trouble with the Polar Retro Platinum PLA on my BambuLab A1 mini. I've been successful in my last few prints using the "Generic PLA" profile and slowing down the initial layer print speeds by ~half.

Glad I stumbled on this. About to get a Bambu mini with Retro Platinum PLA!

Just got some Retro Platinum PLA, and it was an excellent match to the Packard Bell Aloh@ (Aloha) as well!

I was missing the top/side panel ever since I got the machine, and as far as I can tell I've got the only one of these on the internet, so no way I was going to find a replacement... unless I go to Japan and find an NEC version of the case.

Look for ColorFABB RAL7044 out of Netherlands.

@jcm-1 On the Polar website looking to buy another Retro Platinum spool and noticed a new one to me:

Power Gray "Special thanks to Joe's Computer Museum for designing and funding this color, and choosing to release it to the public." ​

Is this really new or did I miss this being out there! Is this a match for PowerBook 100 series plastic? Kinda looks like it might be 5300 series? In any case super excited to hear more about this! Thanks!

This is the grey for Power Book 500 series machines. They have a sample to do the more popular 100 series and should be getting to that soon.
