ColorFabb XT (Copoly) - White

Anyone have any issues with this material?

The recommended temperatures are something like 240-260, however, when I tried printing anywhere in that range I got consistently blobby and oozing prints. So I decided to troubleshoot and try tests at lower and lower temperatures, until I hit something around 215-220, which I felt was extremely out of the manufacturer's range. Anyone have a similar temperature issue? Maybe this is a fluke, or I was accidentally sent a set of their older ColorFabb formulation.

Thanks for the help!

Resurrecting thread...
I am having a similar issue with Colorfabb XT White with an E3dV6 head. Lower temps (<240C) result in weak, delaminating prints that easily crunch. Higher temps (>255C) are strong, don't delaminate, but are smooshy and bloby (the technical term). Somewhere in the middle (245-253) prints, but you have to play with the speed a lot depending on the part you are printing. It also leaves little blobs that the print head later hits or pushes around. Weird.
