AE2 Inscriber presses and BuildUp's Universal Press

BuildUp adds craftable Inscriber presses. The reusable Universal Press also combines printing operations for AE2, Mega Cells, ExtendedAE, Advanced AE and Neo ECO AE.

BuildUp adjustment

Craftable presses, the Universal Press and these added recipes belong to BuildUp. Check your pack version if the recipe viewer does not show them. A wiki update does not install game content.

Craft individual presses​

Surround the centre ingredient with eight Iron Ingots in a normal 3×3 table:

CentrePress
Certus Quartz CrystalCalculation Processor Press
Gold IngotLogic Processor Press
DiamondEngineering Processor Press
AE2 SiliconSilicon Press
AE2 SingularityMega Cells Accumulation Processor Press
Advanced AE Shattered SingularityQuantum Processor Press
Entro CrystalExtendedAE Concurrent Processor Press

These provide an alternative to searching for presses. The Universal Press initially requires the four ordinary AE2 presses.

Craft the Universal Press​

Use a normal 3×3 table:

LeftCentreRight
Sky Steel IngotSilicon PressSky Steel Ingot
Calculation Processor PressSlimeballLogic Processor Press

This consumes four Sky Steel Ingots, a Slimeball and one of each ordinary AE2 press, producing one Universal Press.

Put the Universal Press in the upper press slot and the material in the centre. The press is retained.

These are printed intermediates. You still need subsequent processor assembly and its ingredients. Existing individual presses and their recipes remain usable.

Duplicate presses and build the Circuit Cutter​

An Inscriber with the Universal Press above one Iron Block prints another Universal Press while keeping the original. An ExtendedAE Circuit Cutter can also turn one Iron Block into a Universal Press.

The Crystal Assembler has this additional Circuit Cutter recipe:

IngredientCount
ExtendedAE Machine Frame1
Finished Engineering Processor8
Universal Press1
Stonecutter1
Output: ExtendedAE Circuit Cutter1

Here the press is consumed as a building ingredient. Duplicate it first or make a replacement in the finished Circuit Cutter.
