I have never 3d printed anything before. These days I'm working on a small home automation project, and I will require some enclosures. So I thought why not buy a 3d printer ? That way I can also learn about 3d printing when I get some time.

Also please suggest an affordable 3d printer.

I just bought an Elegoo Neptune 4 Pro, and its semi-automatic bed leveling is great. I'd say getting anything with automatic or semi-automatic bed leveling would be a huge time saver.
