This is a quirk of the Repetrel software. Make sure to Add consistent notes to the slicer profiles, so you can notice them in the G-code preview (they are printed on top of the file). This makes it easier to see exactly which profile you selected

+====== Dialing in new material settings ======
+  * Apart from the slicer profile, the tool-head controls the flow of material
+      * ''Prime'': whenever transitioning from a non-printing move to a printing move.
+      * ''Unprime'': whenever transitioning from a printing move to a non-printing move.
+      * Adjust these settings by halving or doubling the steps and rate, making a test print and then reassessing.
