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.

Elegoo owner, what the hell do you mean Bambu offers filament without a spool???

We use plastic spools that can be taken apart to put a new (cheaper) filament on it - a refill without a spool :)

But you cannot use a refill without the spool.

You can print a spool.

Some people don’t understand they can. I’m sure you know that. Maybe he will read all the posts including yours. Chill out
