kinda like a computer yeah, but if you plug in a cable backwards your printer makes a horrible noise as the head moves the wrong way and crashes into the assembly the first time you turn it on
i hated the assembly of my cheapo chinese 3d printer i think most of the ones from brands like anycubic come more assembled than that so the assembly is easier though
@handy333, If you have any Microcenter stores near you, goto 1 and they have a bunch of diff 3d printers on display and some will be printing even. But don't buy from there, order it online, will be cheaper.
ABS Is the big one of the common filaments that makes potentially toxic fumes (the others are less common exotic filaments that you're not likely to ever encounter)
i think you can get one of the 3d printers that run klipper for closer to $100 during black friday and that will be far more of a plug & play solution cause it has a lot of intelligent features that take away a lot of guesswork and tuning to get things printing well
klipper is what all of the more premium consumer 3d printers (except bambu) run as well, they just add some extra features like built in camera with "AI"
