How it's calculated

Cost per ml = bottle price ÷ bottle volume. Print cost = cost per ml × volume used × (1 + wastage%).

Assumptions
  • Covers resin only — not IPA, FEP film, gloves, or curing energy.

FAQ

Does this work for any resin printer?
Yes — it's based on millilitres of resin, which every MSLA/SLA slicer reports, so it's printer-agnostic.
