World's first 3D-texture UV printer for consumers now available for pre-order — prints onto 'nearly any surface'

  Boy Tom’s hardware has really become dissapointing. Very little about the actual tech here.

  What’s the consumable for this? Seemed like a lot of cartridge slots in that pretty useless video.

    It mentions UV, so possibly a resin printer with some method of also depositing the resin onto the object surface before curing it with UV.

      That’s my thought and maybe it locks up if you are low on resin and don’t order another OEM replacement cartridge?

  Does this printer also leave a secret little signature with every print that can be traced back to you?

  It seems like an interesting piece of kit. (Not $1500USD of interesting for me in the current economic climate, though, especially with no indication of Linux support.) Would be nice to know the cost of the consumables beyond the “starter ink bundle”. Would also be nice to know more about how the prints are expected to hold up long-term, and what the “nearly” part of “nearly any surface” implies—are there common substances it won’t print to?

  Print what? I skimmed the article and I’m confused. Can you print an 3D Eiffel tower on a piece of paper? Or is it more like you’re printing things with a small emboss/raised edge? I didn’t even realize that was something people wanted to do. Maybe for custom tiling?

    I guess things like covers, phone cases, mugs, stickers, magnets, frames or anything made out of wood, leather and so on. Probably something you would make for clients, not for yourself.

  Can’t see anything about the price.

    Early bird pricing starts at $1,499 for printer and starter ink bundle.

    Second paragraph.

      It should have been in the headline.

  Wow, that’s really impressive. I don’t really know why, but I want this.

  Though I initially thought it was handheld, which would make their claim to be able to print on nearly any surface a little more believable. Still seems like incredible tech.
