The OpenPrinter project (see the CrowdSupply project's page) aims to create an open source repairable printer. It has some interesting features.

I was starting to believe the project was dead but they gave some news on their progress today : https://www.crowdsupply.com/open-tools/open-printer/updates/progress-update-and-details-about-our-nomination-for-a-french-design-award.

I post it here since the project is lead by french people and would be an alternative to many printer manufacturer.

Where I live there is a print shop that I can send things too. The per page cost is high, but I print so rarely it is still cheaper that owning my own printer. (I have a printer because other family members exist and between all of us. Plus it is easier then going to their office during business hours). I use them once in a while anyway though because they have large format printers which is sometimes needed.
