Released versions

Printrbot

The version orginally offered for the Kickstarter project. Pure reprap.

Printrbot +

Laser cut, and with a slightly larger build area. The plus was added to the Kickstarter project as an option for those who wanted a slightly larger build area.

Printrbot LC

The same dimensions as the the original Kickstarter model, but with laser-cut parts instead of printed parts. Less expandable, but slightly sturdier and easier to produce. This smaller, laser-cut option was added to the Kickstarter project for those who wanted sturdiness, style, or a chance to help reduce print times for the bot farm.

Printrbot jr.

Absolute minimalism. Smaller build area (10cm^3), less motors (single Z), minimal price ($400). The jr has been worked on as a break in regular Printrbot development.

Printrbot GO

Printrbot in a suitcase. Designed in collaboration with Ben Heck.
