I am looking at buying a 3d printer and although i like getting quality, my budget will not accommodate.
I have read many posts on here about what to do as a noob, but as these things are improving all the time as technology improves, I am left with a few questions.
1. How important is bed levelling, ie after you do it once, do you have to keep doing it. Reason, i have seen a couple of printers,

The newer one does not have auto levelling, but the older one does.
2. what is the most common file type used for these?
I don't mind that it is a self build and I understand that a box for it is advantageous and I can build that.
Any advise would be appreciated.
