Zusammenfassung:	Provided herein is a system for producing a product. The system generally comprises a large-area micro-stereolithography system and a layer leveling system. The large-area micro-stereolithography system is capable of generating the product by optically polymerizing successive layers of a curable resin at a print plane. The layer leveling system is capable of flattening a non-flat region (such as a meniscus) of the curable resin in a vicinity of the build plane.
