Damn if you had checked one hour earlier a few hours later it would have been 69 days and 420 minutes

    You mean meters? There are no minutes on the screen.

    Wait... Didn't this printer just come out in May? That's impressive.

    Umm, I didn't get mine until August, if that makes things better.

    What are you printing to use it that long?

    I run a Etsy shop selling 3D Printed DS Stylus, Portable game system stands, and now E-Reader cases. I get a handful of orders a week that keep the printer busy for long periods of time.

    Plus my SO asked to print her a Sock Sewing machine too, that helped/killed 2 spools.

    Very nice. For 3 months, that's very pretty solid amount of print time - about 75% uptime. It's cool to hear about people turning this hobby into a business and being able to sell things.

    I also have about 3 months of print time on my build. It's not a MK4 though. You have more print time on yours, but but in terms of m/day I think I have you beat.

    I'm guessing you print slower and/or with narrower extrusion widths? I haven't bothered swapping my 0.4mm nozzle for something chunkier yet, but I usually print with 0.2mm layers and 0.6mm wide extrusions with speeds between 70 and 100 mm/s depending on feature type.

    1.75mm filament with a 0.4mm nozzle. My prints are at the recommended "Speed" setting. Input shaping while nice causes clear PETG to not be as clear as it could be. With that said I do leave my printer on after a print, so I am not sure if that counts?
