An open source repairable printer.

I stumbled across this link in the comment of another post, and thought it was super promising! Someone mentioned something about in the US, this …

CC BY-NC-SA

Not open printer. Not open source. You will only be able to get replacements from them, worse than some other printer companies…

Not sure why you’re spouting complete bullshit and where your basing those statements on.

It pretty clearly states you’ll be able to 3D print parts yourself. It’s also using a Raspberry Pi inside, which I’m fairly sure you can buy wherever you want, so saying you can only get parts from them is complete bullshit.

Are you a shill for printer companies or something?

NC - non commercial. Nobody is alowed to sell you the printer nor replacements. Yea you can print it yourself, for that 1% that has a printer.

Maybe actually learn to read what this applies too, the website is very clear on this.

Their own parts are open source, the rest are readily available components.

The BY-NC-SA 4.0 is not an open source license. This printer is not open source. Stop calling it. Even if they themselves call it that way, or “open”.

I’ve met face to face with the person pushing this in Google Summer Of Code mentors meetup Munich. It’s not open source.
