The resin for this IS pretty pricey. Most printers use spools of ABS or PLA plastic, which they melt and deposit from a nozzle, but this type uses photoreactive resin which is hardened by a laser. This gives it the benefit of printing at amongst the highest resolutions possible, with layer thicknesses of 25 microns (0.025mm, so 1/40th of a millimetre!)
