    Hi

    I had this basic question which I was never willing to try on a printer. What will happen in case of power failure in between the print. Can the printer resume the print from where it had stopped or the entire model has to be reprinted ?

    Hello Angela

    The answer is a simple “NO”. Though it is theoretically possible, but in practice, it is very very difficult to make it happen. Unless you are printing a very important print, the only option is to reprint from scratch. More over, once the printer bed cools down, the print comes off the bed, making it difficult to resume the print.
