Resin Printing Cost FAQ
How much does a resin print cost?
Multiply the resin volume your slicer reports by your resin's price per ml (bottle price ÷ bottle size), add a waste allowance for supports and failed prints (10% is a reasonable starting point), and add electricity. A typical 100 ml miniature print with $30/L resin costs around $3–4 in resin.
How much electricity does a resin printer use?
Most consumer MSLA printers draw roughly 40–120 W while printing — the UV array and LCD are the main consumers. At 75 W and $0.15/kWh, a 10-hour print costs about $0.11 in electricity. For a deeper breakdown, see theelectricity cost calculator.
What costs does this calculator leave out?
Consumables: isopropyl alcohol for washing, gloves, filters, and FEP film. These vary widely by workflow — as a rule of thumb, add $0.50–1.50 per print for washing consumables, and an FEP sheet every 20–50 prints. Printing FDM instead? Use the filament cost-per-print calculator.
