Available now, Prusa’s Universal Storage System (USS) drybox looks like a “Swiss Army” box for filament storage, allowing external switching of desiccant, direct printing, as well as a hygrometer and thermometer for condition monitoring.
Bambu Lab's X1 3D printer line-up has entered its end-of-life service plan, effective today. Owners of any of the X1, X1C, and X1E can expect firmware and feature updates through to May 2027 and security patches through May 2029.
Stop looking and start printing: we’ve reviewed and picked the best 3D printers across many categories to help you find the best tech for your needs.
Alveo3D, the French 3D printing air filtration specialist, has released two new workshop-class fume extractors. FE150 and FE350 join the company's smaller, enclosure-specific solutions and mark an expansion into general purpose extraction suitable for heavier duty tasks and environments.
Prusa has delivered a firmware update for the MMU3 that cuts filament change times by up to nine seconds per swap – enough to shave hours off complex multicolor prints.
Snapmaker has confirmed April 10, 2026, as the date its U1 toolchanger will be available in stock across global warehouses, marking the printer's official transition from crowdfunded preorder to an in-stock, ready-to-ship product.
Icon is no longer the only one who gets to run Icon's printers. The Austin-based construction technology company has announced the commercial availability of Titan, opening up its multi-story robotic concrete printing system to external parties.
Creality will soon begin crowdfunding a desktop filament extruder that gives you the ability to recycle printing scraps and waste at home, turning it into fresh printable filament. But there are caveats, and plenty of history to say it’s not so simple.
From budget-friendly single-nozzle systems to high-end toolchangers, here are the best multi-extrusion 3D printers for 2026 across five distinct categories.
New external kit from French filtration specialists Alveo3D adds ultrafine particle filtering to the Bambu Lab P2S’s native VOC-capturing charcoal-based filter.
Forget proprietary hardware—this open-source project from Sunnyday Technologies uses standard NEMA motors and generative design to bring pallet-scale concrete printing to your workshop.
First shown at the IFA Berlin consumer technology show last year, Creality’s latest 3D printer in its flagship K2 series pushes the price lower, ditching the walls and door and offering multicolor out of the box.
That much is clear. But don't forget the Bondtech INDX is actually a standalone platform, meaning compatibility with a range of off-the-shelf Klipper (plus other firmwares) and custom builds. The latest developer video from Bondtech explores the Duet3D co-developed toolhead board and its I/O, including compatibility with SZP coils for very fast mesh bed levelling.
In contrast, Prusa uses its own toolhead board, opting for an integrated load cell for nozzle-based mesh bed levelling.

A drip feed of dev videos on Prusa's YouTube channel is starting to build hype for the INDX upgrade (for us at least) though we're still waiting for confirmation when this multi-material upgrade will become available.
A large 3D printer can be your best friend for outsized and ambitious 3D printing projects. Here’s our take on the best you can buy today.
Sidestepping its own upgrade kit for the K-series machines, Creality introduces a new way to bring multicolor printing to your K1 3D printer.
Zero-waste multicolor printing is the new frontier, and Snapmaker is getting ahead with this “simple” toolchanger that punches above its price point.
The 3D printer component manufacturer has launched a program that nets you points for spending, as well as sharing and following on social media.
Unlike memberships that lock perks behind annual spend thresholds, this is a straightforward "earn-and-burn" model. Points can be exchanged for fixed-percentage discount codes: 500 coins for 5% off, scaling to 20% at the 3,000-coin mark. Best of all, the discounts can stack on top of other promos, like the company's Black Friday sale. More details can be found in a blog post covering the launch.
From deburring to polishing, the upgraded and compact M1 system eliminates manual labor by running multiple surface treatments simultaneously—addressing one of the biggest hurdles in serial additive manufacturing.
