#Stronghero 3D Filament Print Issues

I've been doing most of my prints with a clear "natural" 1.75 mm PLA. I'm able to print fairly well with this filament. However, when I switch to a different filament (stronghero 3D) it's like everything was changed, from what I've read, it seems the z offset is perhaps too far away? But it doens't make sense as I have no issues with the clear filament. Any advice would be great!

(top) Stronghero 3D PLA 1.75 mm temp 195-215c
(bottom) clear Natural (doesn't seem to have an actual brand name) PLA 1.75 mm temp 215-230c.

(right) Stronghero 3D

Additional Details (applies to both filaments)
Slicer: Cura
Printer: Ender 3 Pro
Nozzle Temp: 230c (because incrementing through the temp for the Stronghero 3D, it wouldn't print until it go to the 230 mark, even though it suggests significantly less)
Bed Temp: 62c
Layer Height: 0.16mm
Print Speed: 45 mm/s

From the pictures, it looks like your printer is over-extruding with the Stronghero 3D filament. This could be due to several factors, such as a different melting point or a different composition of the PLA.

To troubleshoot this issue, I would suggest trying the following:

Check the manufacturer's recommended printing settings for the Stronghero 3D filament and adjust the temperature and speed accordingly.
Calibrate your extruder to ensure it is extruding the correct amount of filament.
Adjust the flow rate and retraction settings.
Try printing a calibration cube with the Stronghero 3D filament to see if there are any issues with the dimensions.
If none of these steps work, try a different brand or type of PLA filament to see if the issue persists.

Remember to make small changes when adjusting settings and to calibrate your printer before printing. Good luck!
