@cos Well it's nice, but the main part that will fail, the print head, kinda is under the control of a single company.
Considering that any decent commercial printer will last for decades, is fairly well repairable with basic tools like sand paper, there is less of an urgency in that area.
I mean unlike mobile phones, printers kinda are enshittification free. (unless you expect to buy a <200 colour printer)

@casandro I think the way to remedy this would be to have a physical & electric interface module for different print head brands which could be swapped while keeping rest of the printer as is.
