My resin printer was powered off with resin in the vat for about 7 months. Last night I turned it on, gave it a job, and I woke up to a successful print.
My inkjet printer was powered off for 2 weeks. Last night I turned it on, gave it a job, and was instantly disappointed with a streaky, blotchy output. Running a clean cycle just made the output worse.
Why are 2D printers so terrible despite decades of development? What are some 2D printers this community has had good interactions with/would recommend?
I have a very old photo printer from Canon and it’s amazing! Produces really high quality photos in A3. And I’ve never had any issues apart from two nuances: it can’t print text documents and its ink is very very expensive. Not your average inkjet expensive, it’s much more expensive and it lasts for like 20 full page prints or something.
On the other hand you’re not getting full colour high quality A3 prints cheaper in a photo lab either. And your average photo lab can’t print photos that good.
