How they differ on the data
Prusament ASA runs 5°C hotter on the nozzle (window midpoints 255°C and 260°C), and the two windows share 20°C of range, so one profile can cover both. Bambu Lab ASA lists the wider window (30°C against 20°C). Prusament ASA runs 18°C hotter on the bed (window midpoints 90°C and 108°C), and the windows do not overlap, so each needs its own profile. Bambu Lab ASA lists the wider window (20°C against 5°C).
