Raise your Temp and/or Slow your Speed - How to Print PLA

Tangled PLA should be printed at:
200-235C if printing at 35-50mm/s (Old Prusa or Creality)
235-255C if printing at ~100mm/s (BambuLab High Speed)
This has come up a bunch. Tangled PLA is not a preset on your printer. It is a different material. You will likely have to change presets on your machine.
FYI: using 255oC on my P1S at 300mm/s and 29mm3/s (0.4 nozzle, 0.2 to 0.28 layer height, E3D HF Obxidian hotend), and bed temp raised from 55 to 60oC. Just randomly picked these values, without calibration or extensive tests. Has worked well so far (~12 prints, 12 hours total).
Would love to have a filament profile for Bambu printers available for download.
I keep having issues with partial clogs with a brand new nozzle. I've tried 210 to 255 with my X1C with 100m/s and the door open and closed. I like to print at 5 perimeters and am having no luck...
