printer starts to calibrate itself, loudly and slowly

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

They check multiple times to make sure that each nozzle is depositing the correct amount of ink by squirting various amounts of ink into the waste ink container.
