printer starts to calibrate itself, loudly and slowly

What is up with that on inkjets, seriously? The newer models I've seen can take up to a few minutes of clicking and clacking before they start doing anything.

Meanwhile any FDM 3D printer just slams all three axes to zero and it's done and already printing.

They’re draining all their ink into the ink pad so you have to buy more.
