* 18-Feb-2019  Formlabs no longer supports the Form 1+ printer.  Both PS1 printers work, and experimentation is ongoing to find alternate resins/settings/tanks to print with.
 +
* Currently, there are (2) Z-vat tanks http://www-zvatindustries-com at PS1.  One is installed in premiumphyra. 
    
* The main limitation to new users is that both the tank and the resin are considered consumables, that you must provide for yourself. "One standard tank lasts for about 2 L of our resin. With a separate tank for each individual resin color, switching materials is as easy as sliding in a new tank."

* Each tank is (in 2018) $59 and each build platform is $99 https://formlabs.com/store/us/form-1/buy-accessories/

* White resin, the most common type, is about $149 per liter. https://formlabs.com/store/us/form-1/buy-materials/
