    Yeah, take a look at the article. It is something totally different

        It can print on any surface so you could throw a mug in there and print on the side of it apparently. 3D printers require a flat bed to print an object on.

          Not at all like a resin printer. Imagine a hybrid: the top part is an inkjet printer with a printhead that goes side-to-side shooting ink but instead of paper sliding under it there’s a flatbed not unlike the one in a filament 3D printer. The ink is cured by a uv lamp (or more than one, but I suspect this printer has only one and very small and weak since the smaller lamp I work with costs more than this hole printer) usually fixed to the side of the printhead ‘carriage’.
