Default color
The color the profile suggests for this filament in the program. It only changes how it looks on screen.
How it works
With the AMS, each slot's color is read from the spool by the printer or set by you; this value is what the profile suggests when there's nothing else. It lets you see the part in a similar color in the preview.
When to change it
- Almost never: the real color is set on the plate's filament or read by the AMS.

Watch out for
- It changes nothing about the print: it's just for the screen.
