printers make the most unholy of noises when they're calibrating/adjusting/whatever it is they do in there. I have never heard one that doesn't sound like it's gargling on its own insides with each print
it just leaves me to wonder how these paradoxical awful little machines continue to function, especially considering what Old High Magic it takes to write a device driver for one of these things
something also confusing me is how 3D printers use fairly similar tech for the motion system (although often a bit more rugged and modular), but even with drivers in loud mode and 2-3x the motors they manage to still sound more reasonable
