Loading a Profile
When you first switch to Full Settings, Cura will revert to very generic
settings. We recommend using our tested profiles that are available here:
https://www.lulzbot.com/support/downloads. You will want to choose
the profile that matches your filament and quality needs. Once downloaded,
you can load the file into Cura by selecting File > Open Profile. Choose
your desired profile. This will automatically update all of your settings for
use with your printer.

Layer Height
The thickness of each printed layer is known as the Layer Height. The
smaller the layer height, the smoother curves will appear. Larger layer
heights are better for bridging and overhangs. Smaller layer heights will
also increase print time, as it will take more layers to complete the object.
