I can't wait until a company like Apple creates their own printers and somehow makes it worse.

Uh.. they did make printers, starting in the 80s some were pretty decent and they helped start desktop publishing: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Apple_printers

I didn't know this. But Apple is a different company than they were in the 80's and i feel that it would still be bad today.

Edit: or the 90's when they made their last models according to that article.
