Open source printer with refillable ink, no bullshit, accept rolls of papers.

Finally an open source printer ! I dealt with so much stupidity with printers. it warm my heart.

I do have too much joy to practice mandatory critical thinking about the release of a new project. Lets talk about it? i am not the only one to be happy about it, i have no info about the price though :/

    Problem is that those cartridge nozzles that deposit tiny droplets of ink precisely when and where you want them are pretty close to magic.

    They’re about as easy to manufacture as microchips, and they’re also the one part of the inkjet printer that you absolutely need to be on point if you want it to print right.

    I’m surprised we don’t have open source laser printers though, that’s still hard but should be doable, if you can source the material for the rollers and figure out the led strip that charges it?
