I have a TAZ6 with Cura 3.63  
Printed the rocktopus on nGen filament no problem  
Bought some Polylite PLA  
It wants temp to be 210-230  
I can preheat to that  
But when I print it drops to 140!

I’ve read how to override the material profile but that is for older Cura versions 2.6  
Says latest Cura 3.63 should have the latest profiles

How do I get Polylite PLA to print at the right temp?

Thank you

This is the wiping and probing temperature for your PLA. This is normal behavior, and after the wiping and probing it will return to the set printing temperature.
