Afinia filament on Reprap

Scored some really cheap ABS filament (made for Afinia H printers) from Radioshack store that went out of business. Now I'm reading specs and scratching my head. It says Extrusion temperature: 260-270° C
That's pretty high, I normally print at 225C... Should I be able to print at lower temp, or I'm out of luck?
I have prusa i3 rework btw with standard J-head (non-metal).

Here's what I found on Afinia website:

The Premium ABS filament has been designed specifically to the specifications of the H-Series 3D printer, the most important being the 260° Celsius extrusion temperature. The Value-Line filament has an extrusion temperature range between 210 and 250° Celsius. This range allows for broad support among a number of different 3D printers on the market.

Their premium filament might have some additives that require higher temperatures (most likely nylon)

I have some "high quality " ABS that I can only print from 245 and up, anything under and won't print right, you should be able to print at lower than 260, but don't know if at 225.

Ah I see, thanks for the info! I'm trying to upgrade to E3D v6 hotend hopefully it'll be able to handle it. Otherwise I'll just eBay it....

One more question. Does higher temperature ABS printing also requires my Heatbed to be hotter? If that's the case, I certainly don't want to use this filament...

No, bed can be at 100~110 since nylon only needs 80 to stick.
