I only print with PLA and it works perfectly. ABS is probably also supported (the heating head must be set a little hotter). In various forums, however, it is recommended to use a heated print bed when using ABS so that the print material does not warp due to uneven cooling. This printer only comes with a glass plate, so you will have to order a heated bed and possibly a stronger power supply to upgrade it. Otherwise, it is advisable to carry out several test prints before actually using the printer in order to find the optimum settings in the slicer programme (layer thickness, print speed, heatend temperature, fan activity, filling pattern, ...). For newcomers, it is certainly advisable to obtain information in electronics shops (e.g. big blue C) and to examine the printers in the flesh.
