Artificial Intelligence (AI) is being incorporated into almost every field as it can make procedures efficient. The printing industry for material appearance reproduction might sometimes require considerable time to fabricate final products. One of the technologies for realistic and natural-looking material reproduction is called 2.5D printing. To reduce intermediate printing stages, thereby making them more eco-friendly, time-efficient, and cost-efficient, well-known AI tools can be explored in the 2.5D printing field. In this way, customers can be presented with the digital versions of their 2.5D prints before proceeding to the (final) printing. To our knowledge, this is the first study that explores the potential of AI tools with regard to 2.5D prints. We test some of the well-known commercial text-to-image generation AI tools. The study is preliminary in order to obtain some initial observations on potential of AI tools to be able to generate realistic and natural-looking 2.5D prints.
