eSun and (obviously) Bambu provide filament configurations and process configs for their filaments in Orca Slicer (or Bambu Studio,but that won't be used here anymore).

This is quite useful as a starting point for filaments you never used before, you don't have to transfer the manufacturers recommendations (who often are quite generic. 170-250°? Really?) and is quite helpful for new users (which I sometimes have to help).

The question is: Are there any other manufacturers who do that? There are of course a few stock one delivered with Orca,but is there anyone else?

Edit:

So far we have the following:

I found it's often not that difficult for me. I have different profiles for different material types. But I pretty much print all of the same type (PLA or PETG) at the same temperature that works well with my printer. In my experience (in the cases I tinkered around with the settings and compared the results) that works better than choosing the manufacturers specific recommended temperature. Idk. But I just use generic filament. Nothing special or with stuff added to it. So YMMV. But I just didn't find filament configurations very helpful for generic filament and for what I do.
