After nearly a decade at the helm, David Randolph has stepped down as CEO of Delaware-based Printed Solid. The move, announced on X and effective as of January 1st, sees Josef Prusa, CEO of parent company Prusa Research, stepping in as interim leader to oversee what could be a new phase of North American expansion. Randolph will remain as a consultant during the transition period. A permanent successor has not yet been named.
Under Randolph’s leadership, Printed Solid evolved from a small 3D printing supplier into a key manufacturing hub for Prusa’s European-designed hardware. The company has a small Prusa print farm churning out parts for MK4S and Core One 3D printers that are assembled in Delaware. Work is underway to source sufficient American-made parts to earn the printers the coveted “MADE in the USA” stamp. Josef Prusa has stated that he wants his team to become the largest 3D printer and filament manufacturer in the U.S.
