How they differ on the data
Prusament PLA runs 10°C hotter on the nozzle (window midpoints 200°C and 210°C), and the two windows share 10°C of range, so one profile can cover both. Prusament PLA runs 22°C hotter on the bed (window midpoints 28°C and 50°C), and the two windows share 15°C of range, so one profile can cover both. Fillamentum PLA Extrafill lists the wider window (55°C against 20°C).
Fillamentum PLA Extrafill ships on a 0.75 kg spool and Prusament PLA on 1 kg, so compare price per kilogram rather than per spool.
