    Canon printers. How many of us are still refilling?

    I always had Epson printers, which were very easy to find, not only refillable cartridges but also adaptations to bulk ink systems in Brazil. This is my first Canon. I enjoy this printer a lot, but to be honest, there was almost no reliable information about inks and refiling its cartridge the...

    Video from Lesic - Inkjet Printers | The interesting engineering behind them

    Come on guys, of course, this is a simplistic explanation, what would you expect from a few minutes video targeted to those that know nothing about printers :drool. The video isn't forming new printer technicians, but your dumb friend just asking about printer principles is not going to open...

    Time For A 3D Printer Upgrade?!?! Keep, Upgrade, Something else?

    Changing the motherboard is adding a whole new learning curve to your life. I needed to figure out every pin I was using for this same board since my printer is custom built. But... And that may be a big but... In his particular case, BTT provides firmwares already customized for the ender 3...

    I managed to get my hands on a very small amount of copper filament. But that was enough to get the courtain wall. Starting to cut fixed windows open to glue some acetate on it giving up on the clear Petg. It is too wet. Is it safe to dry the Petg with the air fryer? (Real question here)Like...

The model isn't that big, it is just my print bed is the...

    Edit: Almost forgot, here is a 3d render from the same model and how it should look like after building it. So... This is very rough, raft quality and two very, very, very old and wet filaments I had sitting for over 3 or 4 years... But: (Again, potato phone pics, from someone that's sleep...

    Time For A 3D Printer Upgrade?!?! Keep, Upgrade, Something else?

    Came here looking for the Voron 2.4 mention... Was not disappointed. I have being thinkering with my homemade Graber i3 since @thehat gave me a gentle push to it. And I've made my mind that if I would ever build a new printer it should be no less than a Voron 2.4, but with a 400mm x400mm x 400mm...

    I had no ideia that this was a different content. My canon does not recognize my cartridge since I am using the refillable one with original ink. Without getting too much away from original topic, can you show us if the content is much better?

    I will try to please Greeks and Trojans. 😅 Here is what I am printing and this can be a tip for your sister. Personalized Christmas ornaments that I will be giving away as a souvenir for the clients I had throughout the year. I also printed and glued the box, I wish I had some acetate plastic to...

    No worries, this thread appeared on front page as recommendation and I got curious, that's all. I believe my 3d printer is beyond hope now. I assembled it as a Graber (prusa like, but using laser cutted MDF) after some time one of my axis wasn't responding. Ichecked the motor, replaced the...
