    I just ordered an ABS/PLA ROBO printer.

    I have heard that "colored" filament doesn't print as well as white, or "non colored" filament. Is this true? If so, what colors print the best, for ABS and PLA? Is the ROBO filament good, or is there a better quality filament somewhere else?

    The final color does not matter, as I will most likely be making molds of the finished prints.

    Thanks for the help.

    It really depends on the manufacture of the filament and the type of master batch used, it's the master batch that changes the characteristics of the filament.
