I really want Framework to make a printer, actually it doesn't have to be Framework but a company with a similar model and goals would be great. The printer industry needs a swift smack upside the head. Its totally awful. Yes I love my Brother, but I'm keeping my eyes open for a good OkiData linefeed printer. Those things are tanks and their ink lasts forever.

It would mean no cartridge shenanigans, and likely better and open firmware. And yes, internal USB ports for modular network interfaces and such :) I'm afraid it's going to be pretty expensive though. Many printers are essentially subsidized by purchases of toner and ink.
