[conspire] (forw) [kwlug-disc] Fwd: Open Printer ??? open-source, repairable inkjet printer

[Rick Moen]

Interesting news (that I'd missed) from Kitchener-Waterloo LUG in
Ontario.  Imagine:  An inkjet printer offering value and not out to
screw the owner.  How novel!

Printers are my specialty, so I was excited to see this project announced
(hoped for a laser though). Perhaps some of you'd be interested too?

I noticed Open Printer was announced the other day:

https://www.crowdsupply.com/open-tools/open-printer
https://www.xda-developers.com/open-source-printer-raspberry-pi-zero-w/
https://www.hackster.io/news/the-open-printer-is-a-raspberry-pi-zero-w-powered-fully-open-highly-flexible-inkjet-printer-30948a1787cc


It's a newly launched project on Crowd Supply — an open-source, repairable
inkjet printer that features no cartridge DRM, yet is compatible with HP 63
(US) or HP 302 (Europe) cartridges.

Cheers,
Doug
