<p>The compact Afinia H479 is a version of PP3DP's Up Plus 3D printer, rebranded for the U.S. market. It’s got a single extruder and runs via USB off Mac or Windows machines, with no onboard controls except an Initialize button and a flashing status indicator. But despite the n-frills hardware, it’s a surprising little performer that’s ideal for beginners.</p>
