But 3d printers can just work out of the box and work in one whole extra dimension.
It's easier to make a 3d printer hold a pen and write a document out than risk attempting to use an inkjet printer that has been sat idle for more than 10 minutes.
This is weirdly very true. I literally have a plotter setup on my Ender 3 because I find the result more interesting than an inkjet.
(Serious) Can we use an old 3D printer to "plot" a black and white document? I would really love open source to drop its mighty power on printers.
