I think the 4.2 km counts
You mean meters? There are no minutes on the screen.
7 hours is 420 minutes
That's a zero, not an 8
So it is. Guess it's time I saw an optician
Yes, but it also means it's not too late!
Wait... Didn't this printer just come out in May? That's impressive.
Umm, I didn't get mine until August, if that makes things better.
What are you printing to use it that long?
I run a Etsy shop selling 3D Printed DS Stylus, Portable game system stands, and now E-Reader cases. I get a handful of orders a week that keep the printer busy for long periods of time.
Plus my SO asked to print her a Sock Sewing machine too, that helped/killed 2 spools.
Nice.

Very nice. For 3 months, that's very pretty solid amount of print time - about 75% uptime. It's cool to hear about people turning this hobby into a business and being able to sell things.
I also have about 3 months of print time on my build. It's not a MK4 though. You have more print time on yours, but but in terms of m/day I think I have you beat.
I'm guessing you print slower and/or with narrower extrusion widths? I haven't bothered swapping my 0.4mm nozzle for something chunkier yet, but I usually print with 0.2mm layers and 0.6mm wide extrusions with speeds between 70 and 100 mm/s depending on feature type.
1.75mm filament with a 0.4mm nozzle. My prints are at the recommended "Speed" setting. Input shaping while nice causes clear PETG to not be as clear as it could be. With that said I do leave my printer on after a print, so I am not sure if that counts?
