Pretty cool printer. I'm more fond of the home-made 3d printers personally, such as RepRap. Cool nonetheless

This takes me back to the heady days of the old West Coast Computer Faire in the late '70s, when people were showing off their chicken wire and duct tape laced homebrew projects. It was more fun back then when there was little practical use for these gadgets!

I'd like to try that with markers and replace my printer!

And the best part is that ink cartridges for this printer run around $0.25 or so if you buy a pack of them. Not $39 each like most brands!
