> I must apologise that I haven’t so far open-sourced any part of this that I don’t have to. Mainly that’s because I think this would be an awesomely sticky web property for a printer consumables firm to integrate with their sales site. And I’d much prefer it if they paid me to white-label it for them, rather than just forking a repo and getting it all for free. They might be interested if they cared at all about the ease of use of their printers | ||

These printer makers have the source code and the ability to write firmware. If they wanted to support WebUSB, they could and would. | ||

They are referring to aftermarket ink cartridge companies, not the printer OEM. | ||
