On the Road to Launch
A new teaser as we get ready to launch, and we need your input!
Some more news about the OpenPrinter project. With a poll asking for planned usage of potential users, probably to help them prepare a first production batch.
I am excited to see the project progress !
Here is their website as well for interested people : https://www.opentools.studio/
I remember looking at this at some point and first being excited, but then disappointed.
I do not remember the exact reason, but it had something to do with how open/not open it is.
Some part was still very proprietary or something, kind of defeating the purpose.
Someone more invested than me might know what I’m rambling about, but I really hope this is as good as it looks at a first glance.
perhaps you are referring to the ink cartriges? iirc, it uses canon cartridges.
HP. But what I understood is that you only buy those once and then you get your refill ink from Openprinter.
I believe this may be about the licensing as discussed in an earlier post.
From my understanding the ink can be bought elsewhere too but I’d have to check to make sure.
