Printing 3D Printer
Is there an itemized list of the items that need to be printed in order to build the 3D Printer as I thought I had all items but I get the error message I'm still missing edges or other parts. I've attempted this 3 times and still have to printer.

For a small printer to get you started
4x 3D Printer Base (Small)
16x 3D Printer Glass Panel (Small)
11x 3D Printer Edge (Small)
6x 3D Printer Access Edge (Small)
1x 3D Printer Core Screen
4x 3D Printer Resource Slot Edge (Small)
1x 3D Printer Power Slot Edge (Small)
2x 3D Printer Access Ramp (Small)
8x 3D Printer Corner (Small)
(Optional) 2x 3D Printer Ramp Extension (Small)

thanks this should be included in the game.

One question in regards to the 6 printer access edges so on the printer where are these to be placed on the top or bottom. Does it matter?

Top and sides. They form the opening of the printer and are where the screen is attached.

I printed the items as indicated assembled the printer but still get the error missing edges or panels missing, so I'm at a loss. Unfortunately the in game picture of the printer doesn't match closely to the actual printer.

Check if you use the "3D Printer Access Edge" correctly. It is not symmetrical. There is a glassy side that must face inwards and a edgy side.

There are usually small holes... I had that at the beginning, too.

I tried it again and failure again. To look at this another way can I assume that the small access edges are only used at the front of the printer which on the in game diagram is labeled as "access". Otherwise I use the regular small edges for the rest of the printer.

One thing i figured out when assembling is make sure to look at the inside of the edge pieces. They have a curved circuit or wires on them. Make sure they are all facing the same way when you put them on. My printer kept saying it was missing pieces and I was beginning to think it was bugged until i looked inside the printer and paid attention to those "wires".

make sure you only place the Acces Edge panels at the LH, RH, and UPR edges of the 3D printer entracne opening

Thanks for the tips I guess I'll make another attempt needless to say it's frustrating.
I dunno ... I never made the mistakes to not having it work ... I should make a video how it is done ... but I am lazy.
And the real frustrating part just begins there ... you need to use that printer to print more (bigger) printer parts ... to be actual able to print useful stuff.
But don't print too much ... you need the resources ... and can't recycle stuff ...
Don't print too little or you have to disassemble the big one once again a reassemble the small..
Or use the painstakingly (very) small one to print small parts ...
