just slice and either save file to sd card - qidi has sd card slot. Or print over usb - I only do that for print times under 30 minutes.

The sd card means you just need a power socket and can take the printer anywhere with files already lodade on the memory card.
The delta also has a full size sd card slot built into the control panel. A lot of printers seem to have micro sd card slots - and those things are so tiny they often get stuck in the wrong part of the machine :-)

Setup is basically take it out of box. Bolt on extruder, put hat together, attach tubes, plug it in, picka language and follow the on screen instructions.
The welcome script guides you through: calibrating bed, nozzle calibration, loading filament and other stuff.
Very friendly and easy to use machines.

First time I fired up my creator I was amazed - it basically talks to you (in text). Loved that :-)

All slicers use g-code. So you're not limited.

italy eh ?

there ya go.
Oooh - lot cheaper on ebay: http://www.ebay.it/itm/Stampante-3d-...QAAOSwPK1ZU7Q5

560 !
Ok perfect then, pretty much what i'm looking for, and the sd card slot sounds very useful, any idea if it has wifi too? Not that's much important in the end i could just try and plug it into the router via usb and see if can print from anywhere in the house, but whatever, even directly connected to the pc will be fine. Anyway i'll stick to amazon probably, since it's amazon, and the one on ebay is used, and the guy selling it has little feedback, i wouldn't risk it.
Thanks for all the help, from everyone but especially from you, really, as always, anything that comes on your mind guys, just post it, i'm always watching
