April 14 printing suite class has been cancelled. Next class is May 12.
Pikes Peak Makerspace (PPM) maintains desktop printers for all our members to use (Level 1).
Our DTF (Direct to Film - heat transfer) printer, is a Level 2 piece of equipment.
Additional PPM training is required to use any of our Level 2 equipment.
Members are also welcome to bring in their own computers and use our printers (and high-speed Internet connection.)
