Spools your nozzle turns away
Swap to a 0.2 mm nozzle for detail or a 0.6 for speed and some spools stop being a good idea. Bambu Studio keeps a list of them and says so on the plate. Pick the nozzle you are about to fit and see which Bambu spools it turns away.
Check a nozzleWhat the list says
0.2 mm: no sparkle, marble or wood. Marble, Sparkle, Wood and Galaxy PLA, and both translucents, are flagged on the smallest nozzle.
0.6 and 0.8: no silk, no foam. Silk, Silk+, PLA Aero and ASA-Aero are flagged on the bigger standard nozzles.
0.4 high flow: no fibre. All nine Bambu carbon and glass fibre spools are flagged on a 0.4 high flow nozzle, Bambu's and E3D's alike. On the bigger high flow nozzles none are flagged.

From the slicer itself: resources/info/nozzle_incompatibles.json in BambuStudio 02.08.02.61, read by Print::get_incompatible_filaments_by_nozzle; PartPlate then shows "It is not recommended to print the following filament(s) with" the nozzle and the spools. It matches Bambu's own spools by name, so another brand's silk or sparkle PLA gets no message even where the same reason holds. The slicer gives no reason for any entry, so neither do we.
