    Temp setting on PC vs Printer

    I'm new to 3D printing, in CURA it lets me select the nozzle temp say 200, on my CR10 it also has a temp setting, i wold assume it sets my printer to what i set in CURA?

    usually the temperature for printing is set by the gcode.

    Temperature settings on the printer are mainly for changing filament. Well that's all i've ever used them for.

    I use the Printer temp to set as preheat, while preparing the model. Ready to Print start with a preheat.
    Slice part sent to printer, start print from this preheated state. Can be used to change current color filament.

    true, if I'm doing a pre-heat. I usually do it via the simplify3d control panel.
