What Caused the Delays?

EufyMake encountered several issues during final production that required fixes before shipping. Here's what was resolved:

Magenta Ink Formulation

Early cartridges had color accuracy problems with the magenta ink. EufyMake reformulated the ink to match their color targets.

โœ“ Resolution: New ink batches with improved formulation now shipping

Cartridge Overpressure

Some cartridges were experiencing pressure buildup that could affect print quality and potentially damage print heads.

โœ“ Resolution: Revised cartridge design with improved pressure relief systems

JetCleanโ„ข Calibration

The automated cleaning system needed fine-tuning for optimal print head maintenance.

โœ“ Resolution: Firmware update pushed with improved cleaning cycles

Why this matters: EufyMake's decision to delay shipping rather than push problematic units suggests they're prioritizing user experience over speed. Backers should receive printers that work correctly out of the box.
