Why consider it?

A 9K screen at 8520 × 4320 pixels with 18 μm XY resolution, a speed advertised up to 150 mm/h, 2.4G/5G Wi-Fi transfer, and 4-point leveling per Elegoo.

What to verify

Manual 4-point leveling despite the cover; the compact footprint limits part size to miniatures and small detailed objects.

Which projects is it for?

The Mars 4 Ultra is an MSLA resin printer with a monochrome 9K screen and a 153.36 × 77.76 × 165 mm build volume per Elegoo's listing. This compact footprint suits figurines, miniatures, and detailed parts, where resin captures fine surface detail that FDM struggles to match.

The advertised speed reaches 150 mm/h thanks to the COB light source and Fresnel collimating lens, a speed gain over older printers in the Mars lineup while keeping a compact desktop footprint.

Materials and setup

The printer runs compatible 405 nm UV resins, each with its own profile and post-processing steps per Elegoo. The manufacturer recommends following the profile supplied for the chosen resin rather than reusing settings from another machine.

Only one resin can be loaded at a time: there is no automatic color or material switching on this model. The built-in USB air purifier is advertised to help limit odors during printing.

What the bundle includes or not

The box includes the printer, Wi-Fi antenna, and a USB air purifier per Elegoo's "What's in the Box" list, with the build platform and resin tank offered as separate accessories on some listings. Before buying, check the retailer's listing to confirm whether the tank and platform are included in your specific offer.

Leveling stays manual via a 4-point system, despite a laser-engraved build plate advertised to improve adhesion during printing.

Alternatives to compare

For a larger format with the same type of monochrome screen, the Mars 5 Ultra offers a slightly bigger volume with a newer interface. For a tighter budget, the Mars 5 stays on a 4K screen at an entry-level price.

The resin printer buying guide and the resin materials guide help prepare for post-processing before starting out on this type of machine.

Frequently asked questions

What is the build volume of the Elegoo Mars 4 Ultra?

Elegoo lists a 153.36 × 77.76 × 165 mm (6 × 3.1 × 6.5 in) build volume (width × depth × height). That is the largest theoretical part size; supports, brim and orientation reduce the usable space.

What resolution does the Elegoo Mars 4 Ultra offer?

Elegoo lists a 7-inch 9K LCD and 18 µm XY resolution. Finer pixels help with miniature detail, but supports, resin and washing still decide the final surface.

Is the Mars 4 Ultra suited to large parts?

Not really: its 153.36 × 77.76 × 165 mm build volume per Elegoo targets miniatures, figurines, and small detailed parts.

Is the leveling automatic?

No, Elegoo's listing describes a manual 4-point screw leveling system, done once and then left alone for subsequent prints.

Can you switch resins mid-print?

No, the Mars 4 Ultra runs one resin at a time, with no automatic color or material switching per Elegoo's listing.
