An open source 2d printer is possible but will probably never happen
The print head is incredibly complex, the drivers and communications to talk to printers are all closed source, and unlike 3d printing the level of quality people are accustomed to is covered by patents for another 20-30 years
I want the scanner part.
You can buy dedicates scanners who don't fuck with you.
CANON PIXMA MG 2440 which I have also has full Linux support OOB without the bullshit, either print or scan. But it's an old boy now, it can't do the kewl ayy oo tee bullshit like LAN printing
Canon bricked 3 printers I owned. I will not own another canon. Love their cameras though.
How tf did canon brick them
My shit is so ancient it has no idea what an "Internet" is. I'd like to see canon touch this mfer lol
I had a printer that I used that was offline. It was accidentally put online and it bricked. My day had a printer that bricked when it became a little older. He bought the same one and it bricked immediately. It's planned obsolescence on the last 2.
If your printer needs internet, shoot it
