What are you classifying as 'affordable'?

[–] Live_Let_Live@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago (1 children)

below 10,000-15,000 dollars? the cartridge should be affordable as well so not more than 100$ per killogram

There aren't really even sls printers in that price point yet despite there being somewhat cheaper ($20kish) options for awhile. I wouldn't expect anything for at least 5-10 years.
