Materials and supplies
Printer Resin
Printer Resin lets you produce printed equipment and tools at a 3D Printer, making it a useful reserve for selected crafts.
WHERE & HOW TO FARM
Printer Resin
Printer rooms in underground facilities, including Maintenance A, and the outdoor printer at the Ice Camp in the southwestern mountains.
Before you go
- A route to a printer site; the Ice Camp printer is outdoors.
- The Shovel to excavate Maintenance A or B entrances.
- Inventory capacity for resin and the printed item.
Farming steps
- Choose a printer facility you can reach with your current equipment.
- At Maintenance A or B, first use the Shovel to expose and enter the bunker; do not plan on reaching those printers before obtaining it.
- Search the printer room and nearby facility shelves for Printer Resin.
- Interact with the printer to review available items and their resin cost before committing supplies.
- Print the item that best supports your next expedition rather than spending the whole stock on optional gear.
- Collect the finished item and check how much resin remains.
- On later visits to accessible printer facilities, search for additional resin and repeat the craft decision.
- The outdoor Ice Camp printer offers an option that does not depend on excavating a maintenance entrance.
- Check the cost shown at the printer; preserve enough resin for a planned priority item.
Repeat, collect and use
You can revisit printer facilities to collect remaining supplies, but available resin is limited loot rather than a renewable production cycle.
Common mistakes
- Heading to a maintenance printer without the Shovel; use the outdoor Ice Camp option if it suits your route.
- Printing items without comparing costs; decide what you need before spending resin.
- Assuming every facility has unlimited resin; treat each pickup as finite stock.
When to stop or switch
Stop collecting when your current accessible facilities are cleared or you have enough resin for the item you intend to print; resume on a later facility visit.
