Progress Update & Details About Our Nomination for a French Design Award!

www.crowdsupply.com

We are working tirelessly on the finishing touches before we launch our Crowd Supply campaign at some point in the next few months. Here is a look at where we stand and what we are refining right now.

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.

  Oh Brother where art thou.
  
  They’re not open source, but they’re built like tanks and the toner is cheap.
