ELEGOO Rapid PETG publishes 220–250°C nozzle temperature with 230°C recommended, 75–90°C bed, and 60°C for 8 hours drying. These values are product-specific.

Manufacturer settings for Rapid PETG
| Setting | ELEGOO published value | How to use it on Bambu |
|---|---|---|
| Nozzle | 220–250°C; recommended 230°C | Use 230°C as the manufacturer’s recommended start, provided the installed hotend and printer allow it. |
| Heated bed | 75–90°C | Stay within the printer and build-plate limits. |
| Drying | 60°C for 8 hours | Use a separate dryer that supports this schedule and the spool’s heat limit. |
| Speed claim | 30–600 mm/s on ELEGOO’s product page | This range is not a ready-made Bambu profile or a promise of print quality. |
| Spool | Cardboard spool | Measure the exact spool; cardboard material does not confirm AMS fit. |
These are ELEGOO’s listed values for Rapid PETG. Check the current product specifications before using them; the listing also identifies a cardboard spool.
What is a sensible Bambu starting point?
Start at ELEGOO’s recommended 230°C nozzle temperature. Keep nozzle and bed settings within the maker’s published ranges and your printer and plate limits. ELEGOO’s 600 mm/s figure is a product-line speed claim, not a Bambu Studio profile.
One Bambu owner report starts from Generic PETG and describes an A1 profile for a 0.6 mm nozzle. Other owners report different profiles. These are settings for specific spools and printers, not a preset for every Bambu model.
Before printing PETG on smooth PEI, read the PEI release and glue-stick guide. For AMS and spool dimensions, use the printer-path compatibility matrix.
Check the cardboard spool separately
ELEGOO says Rapid PETG ships on a cardboard spool. Its product page does not establish compatibility with every Bambu feeder. Measure the exact spool against the feeder’s published width, hub, and diameter limits. For AMS 2 Pro, see cardboard spools and adapter guidance; for a wider comparison across AMS, AMS Lite, and dryers, use the cardboard spool and dryer guide. For AMS Lite, use the feeder lookup.
Drying and troubleshooting
ELEGOO’s schedule is 60°C for 8 hours. Do not transfer it to another PETG brand or assume a dryer’s maximum is the right schedule. If stringing remains, follow the PETG troubleshooting checklist after confirming the exact spool and drying instructions.

Common questions
What nozzle temperature should I start with for ELEGOO Rapid PETG?
ELEGOO lists 220–250°C and recommends 230°C. Keep the exact printer and hotend limits in view.
What bed temperature does ELEGOO Rapid PETG list?
ELEGOO lists 75–90°C for the heated bed. Use a surface and temperature supported by the printer and plate maker.
Can I use a Bambu owner profile as a preset?
No single forum profile is a manufacturer preset. Owners report different temperatures, flow limits, nozzle sizes, and surfaces; treat them as individual starting points.
Does the cardboard spool fit every Bambu feeder?
No. ELEGOO identifies a cardboard spool, but that alone does not establish fit. Measure the exact spool against the feeder specifications and follow the printer manual.
