After learning about the Orange 4K from Longer 3D, I was excited to get my hands on one and take it for a test ride. What most intrigued me about the Kickstarter campaign for the Orange 4K was the 4K LCD screen of the system. Fortunately, I had the opportunity to review an Orange 4K while the Kickstarter while it was still ongoing.

Before breaking down my experience with the machine, I should clarify that, in most cases, LCD 3D printers on the market rely on a 5.5” 2K resolution screen. This allows them to achieve 47.25-micron resolution. As far as I know, the Orange 4K is the only LCD 3D printer with 4K resolution, making it possible it to reach 31.5-micron resolution and even finer.
