Do all dual extruder printers support PVA?
I am looking at purchasing a DiVinci 2.0 3D printer but noticed that they do not sell PVA support filament. Provided I can find a way to use another brand PVA, would the extruder accept it? I'm not familiar enough with PVA to know if it has any characteristics that would make it an impossibility.
Thanks in advance!

pretty sure it prints like standard filament. Just water soluble filament.
Can't remember - do the davinci's use cartridges or filament rolls ?

They have their own proprietary cartridges but they can be easily modified to hold other filament types.

Daniel,
I can answer this one. The answer is yes, as long as you can modify cartridges to hold PVA. Make sure you have the double extruders Da Vinci (2.0).
The best temperature for PVA printing is between 190 and 200 Censius. You know PVA is a supporting material best for PLA.
PVA absorbs moisture. So you need to make sure the PVA material is in a sealed bag when not in use. And better put some desiccant around it.
We have PVA in stock www.intservo.com
Thanks,
