Filament printable
An internal number that says which extruders the filament can be used in. It matters on two-extruder printers; with just one, like the A1, it doesn't.
How it works
On printers with two extruders, some filaments can only print in one of them. This number says so. In PLA Basic it's 3, which allows either.
With a single extruder (like the A1) it changes nothing.
When to change it
- Don't touch it.

Using another slicer? Look for the idea, not the name: in Orca Slicer almost everything has the same name; in PrusaSlicer or Cura it may be called something else, or not exist.
