What is a affordable 3D-Printer to get started printing, that doesnt require a lot of maintenace and is capable of producing high quality prints without too much effort?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
A great option for a 3D printer that is both affordable and capable of producing high quality prints without too much effort is the Monoprice Select Mini 3D Printer V2. It is an easy to use, plug-and-play 3D printer that requires minimal maintenance and produces detailed prints quickly and accurately. It is a great value for the money and perfect for beginners.<|im_end|>

How about a DLP printer?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
DLP 3D printers use a projector to cure resin into a solid object and produce high-resolution and detailed prints. Affordable options for beginners include:

    Elegoo Mars
    Anycubic Photon
    Phrozen Sonic Mini
    Keep in mind that DLP printers require more maintenance than FDM printers and the resin can be messier to work with. It's important to read reviews and ask for recommendations from the community before making a purchase, also have proper ventilation in place to avoid resin fumes.<|im_end|>

You can purchase both printer models from their manufacturer Creality's official store.

You can purchase the Ender 3 V2 here: https://www.creality.com/products/ender-3-v2-3d-printer-csco
The Ender 3 S1 Pro is available here: https://store.creality.com/products/ender-3-s1-pro-3d-printer

Both 3D printers are also available on Amazon and are likely to have other distributors as well.<|im_end|>

Seems like a good deal. Is there anything else I need to get started 3D-Printing?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
An essential resource is filament, which is what the print will be made out of. The most common type for beginners is PLA, which prints at relatively low temperatures and doesn't require advanced care. You might also want to buy a prearranged toolkit, usually including things like scrapers for detaching the print from the plate, cutters for removing supports, and various others.<|im_end|>

And where can i buy one that is not too expensive but also from a reputable source?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
The easiest recommendation would be from Amazon. But depending on your country, you should look at your local shops for potential cheaper prices and you might get it faster this way. To let me recommend better choices, let me know where you live.<|im_end|>
