So in this case, the $22,000 printer took ~17% longer.

- spott 12y agoTo do 4 - 8 times the work... (depending on how you think about it). In order to create a "bar" .2 mm on a side, the .1mm printer needs to lay down 4 lines, while the .2 mm printer only lays down one.
- disposablename 12y agoLayer height and extrusion width are separate settings, if the extrusion width is the same, it's only twice as much head travel, not four times. Extrusion width is around .4mm on most FDM printers. You can't really call it more work either, since the resulting volume is identical. The only thing that's different between the two prints is Z resolution, and that's a factor of 2 difference.
