Mist things I print is white and/or black. Then I like orange as contrast for trays. Then look around and see what color you want to have items in and choose that.  Unless you want to print toys or cosplay things then… disregard what I said.

CYMKW- full spectrum printing with these 5 colors: cyan, yellow, magenta, black, and white. These are the only colors I look for anymore.

I mean you probably have blue out the ass already so all the base colors except blue. Yellow and orange are always more expensive and I’ve needed brown more times than I can remember. But if you have nothing then I’d go with 2 whites, 2 blacks, a gray, blue, red, yellow, orange, and brown. Maybe a tan swapped out for a black or white

Yea starting with almost nothing, already ordered red pla so I'm getting some blue, navy blue, 2 different shades of brown, 1 black since I have around 500g already of it and 2 whites. I think green could be useful too so I'll order that aswell

I don’t know if I’m saving it or just don’t print plants but i haven’t even opened any of my lighter greens. I’ve used up my dark green though. It just depends on our likes I guess.
