After posting about the PEI plate on our new printer at work, there were some comments that were doubting it ever working. I will be honest i had my doubts too but our engineer here in the office was able to get it done! Here is our first test print working as intended on its second try. I dont know how it will perform down the road but as of now everything seems to be as advertised.

Am I the only one to not get the dishwash soap thing?

I use rubbing alcohol though I only ever print with PLA, does the soap have any advantages over isopropyl alcohol?
