Am posting on behalf of my son who has collected three 3D printers that all now need some form of repair or maintenance. I have been searching for a 3D printer repairer in Wellington but haven't had any luck so far. I'm trying to avoid driving up to Auckland to get these sorted, so just wondering if the hive mind here has any ideas?

Most 3d printers are hobby items that you are expected to fix yourself.

If its a commercial grade one, then they have their own support network which is usually part of the supply contract.

You really need to provide details about what the printers are, as it can range from a basic ender 3 or anycubic toy up to a 3d systems or Stratasys thing the size of a large refrigerator.

You can fix 3D printers yourself easily. They're designed this way.
