AnkerMake 3D Printer M5C AnkerMake
AnkerMake has taken another step in simplifying 3D printing with the release today of the AnkerMake m5c.
How has Anker made this 3D printing possible? Answer: By removing the touchscreen found on most 3D Printers and switching everything to an app.

Instead of having to navigate endless menus, which are always at an angle that is not optimal, you can control the entire process through an application. All the steps of a print job can be done with just a simple tap. This includes printing, reprinting or rehoming as well as pausing and stopping the printer.
