If you want a truly plug and play experience I would suggest the Bambu Labs line of smart printers. They cost a lot more though and have a lot of proprietary parts/software.
These enders are mostly open source so there is a lot of knowledge resources available.

without it coming out bumpy like this...

Will I have to spend a lot of money to get a 3d printer capable of doing this so I can just paint figures I have printed? I am aware that the prints would be in pieces like a model and that a 12 inch statue may be printed in parts or at least the head separately but that's about all I know. Also, if I would have to spend a lot, are there people who have the printers I could like hire to print things like this? I have no experience with 3d printing I just used to like to build and paint models as a kid and thought it would be cool to do again. If you could tell me what might be needed, if you know, I would appreciate it.
EDIT: after more searching, I'm guessing you were referring to costs per kg when buying 2kg packs?

The reason being, resin printers are better at printing fine detail for miniature figures, although result is not as strong.
OTOH, FDM printers like the "bed slinger" Ender in this listing are better in printing "functional" parts, items that can be used around the house - but struggle with tiny details (e.g. nozzle 0.4mm, layer thickness 0.1-0.2mm)
Now, resin printers are kinda messy - need to wear gloves, the liquid resin stinks, printing is fast but afterwards have to wash the result in rubbing alcohol and then expose it to sunlight (or UV) to "cure" further, then filter the remaining resin and clean the vat from residue. But the resulting grey figurine has smooth surface and ready to paint. (the Ebay listing photos show resin prints)
On the other hand, FDM printers are easier to print with - they just melt filament and "paint" a figurine, "hair" by "hair". The result is more grainy - you can see and feel horizontal lines from the layers. So for these the result would need some post-processing like sanding (by hand, with sandpaper) - or there's solvent vapor smoothing that takes long time but unfortunately does not work for PLA (the most popular plastic type for 3D prints) and have to use more expensive material, PVB.
You can totally do figurines with FDM, they just can't be too small and with fine details and will need sanding.
Resin printers are not too expensive either, you can get one for <$200, for example this Photon Mono 2 on sale for $150 now https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BZVB8D9S . For other deals can check https://3dprintingdeals
