@badaude they don't run out of ink! the paper is special thermal paper that darkens with heat. but generally, they're pretty reliable. you'll want to make sure you have enough paper to hand, teach gallery staff how to replace the rolls (pretty straightforward, esp if it's accessible)Permalink Look on archive.org

@badaude I've used a Star TSP-1000 - less than £100 on ebay. appears as a regular printer (with a weird paper size) - can also talk to it directly in code if you want more control.Look on archive.org

@badaude iirc, there's options with autoslicers & without & you might want to think through if you want one/exactly how that setup would work. but generally - they're good, they're fun, can recommend if you want people to take away a tiny bit of badly printed paper.Permalink Look on archive.org
