Vendor
The filament's brand. Display only: it doesn't change how it prints.
How it works
It's a profile field so you can tell which brand it is. In the tab it's grayed out: you don't edit it here. Bambu profiles say “Bambu Lab”; generic ones, “Generic”.
When to change it
- You never need to touch it.
Typical values

Watch out for
- If you make your own profile for another brand, the profile's name is what will help you find it, not this field.
