Printer with the most automatic and QOL features out there?

The tilting vat, and self leveling build platform especially have their drawbacks. The tilting vat causing weird failures, generally on prints with large cross sectional surface areas. And the auto leveling build platform just smushes the first few layers, so printing directly on the build platform

What to do next.

As an owner of small print farm I can trully recommend Anycubic P1. Due to special wave film on LCD screen it combines speed of M7 series and standard NFEB release film. Also it hase easy to swap LCD screen and fast swap release film (altrough its pricey) . For unexperienced users there is a lot of

Should I re buy the s4u 12k???

The auto leveling is the big drawback. In your shoes, I would buy the Phrozen 12k or the Saturn 3 12k (both are currently on sale). If you have the money, the GK3T, hey gears (but only an 8k screen and locked ecosystem currently), the anycubic P1 and the Phrozen 14k are all highly regarded. 14k scre

Need help choosing between the two. Want to print big stuff, but also minis and not lose a lot of detail. Which would you recommend? Sonic Mega 8ks? Or Photon mono m7 Max?

If you're going Anycubic the P1 Max is coming out soon with good initial reviews(Fauxhammer). Also, the Jupiter 2 is apparently still coming out from Elegoo(COPIUM). Still, you can check out the P1 Max reviews which all look good. Im considering getting one if the Jupiter 2 still isnt out yet.

Things I need to know beforehand

1 - My top recommendation is the Elegoo Saturn 4 Ultra either 16k or 12k. Pros and cons of each: 16k has a heated vat which is good for unheated spaces as well as better for engineering resins with higher viscosity which print better heated. 16k only has 3-bit grayscale / 6 usable shades of gray (12

Jupiter 2 gets released in 7 days… what your thoughts?

Feels like it is probably rushed because anycubic announced the p1 max and then delayed it to march. Which that felt rushed also because this was announced last year but delayed multiple times. Feel like they both are trying to be first to market with a large printer that actually has a resolution t

Saturn 4 Ultra Horrible Build Quality, Better Alternatives?

hey bumpermy suggestion here is to be patient in the print farm we tried saturn 4U's and yes, the tilty mech is neat but they are kind of shitty printers, we then settled on anycubic m7 pro's However we did just purchase 6x anycubic p1's, which seem like better m7's (ballscrew, more robust, easier t

🔥 Photon P1 Max vs Photon Mono M7 Max

Fauhammmer's review of the P1 was great! He mentioned a couple minor observations and Anycubic fixed them. That's how preview reviews should work

What to do next.

Thank you for the information on a printer I was curious about but not really considering. I am certainly not tech averse I just don't require it. I will agree with your comment about any cubic support. I have never had a negative experience, other than trying to figure out how to navigate it. It is

Looking to buy a resin printer, any other printers I should look at besides the Saturn 16k?

Check out the Anycubic P1 as I would probably wait for it as a change from my current HeyGears UltraCraft Reflex printer if I was looking at buying a new printer soon.
