$1400. I think you would have to do a lot of PCB's to justify that. I wonder about the price of the ink. Before I got a laser printer I would buy new ink jet printers because it was cheaper than buying ink cartridges. Not an option here.

Also, it looks like it mostly support SMT stuff, not through hole components.

This is just a startup product. I don't see why not these type of printers will later drop in price and especially be very helpful to guys doing project runs needing a faster and more accurate way of producing a printed board prototype for their project.
