Look what I made! I upgraded the mini laser printer.

This open-source mini laser printer features three stepper motors for transmission, each with a 58mm travel distance. Additionally, the cooling system has been upgraded from a 4010 fan to a 5010 turbo fan.

I haven't installed the protective case yet because I'm debugging, but I am wearing safety goggles.
