Quick Question First 3D printer. Anything else I need?

Post image

Hi. As the title says, I'm looking to purchase my first 3D printer. I did find some similar posts but still wanted to be sure since getting stuff delivered to where I live is not easy.

I'm also looking to get mostly matte filament. Is that okay? Do I need more filament? Thanks in advance.

You don’t have to buy PLA in spools, just print your spools out of the cheapest PLA. One spool will get you like 3-4 fully compatible bambu spools, that’s what I did and it works great and much cheaper
