I am not sure how well Fusion will work with 3D printers. As jwmelvin just explained, the slicer literally slices the file and generates the g-code for the printer.
Fusion will certainly generate g-code, but not sure if it has any slicing capability. It, however, will certainly generate tool paths for CNC machines and such.
I started my CAD drawing life with Fusion and really fell in love with it, but then I guy I was working for asked me to come up to speed on Solidworks so I have let Fusion sit dormant for 6 or 8 months, and considering how fast the design team makes changes to Fusion, I may have fallen behind on its capabilities. I use Solidworks for my drawings and export (save) the file as an STL. I then bring the STL file into PrusaSlicer or Cura to have it processed and then exported as G-code to the printer.
3D printing and CAD drawing are, in my opinion, one of the biggest rabbit holes you could possibly jump into. The learning curve can initially be steep, especially if one is trying to learn CAD concurrently. I started in Fusion where I initially struggled and then switched to Solidworks and thanks to my friend I was able to make significant progress. Once the foundation of CAD design is developed, then it becomes more a matter of just learning the commands specific to the program.
I am also seriously considering an SLA printer. The Peopoly is one of them

Elegoo Saturn and the Prusa SLA1, but the Prusa build volume is rather small. If it was larger, I would have one on order.
