In this informal solo pitch addressed to the Shark investors, the speaker argues that the printer market is stuck in the 1990s‑2000s, dominated by legacy brands like Epson and Brother. He proposes creating a consumer‑focused, design‑centric printer that looks like an Apple product—white glass, sleek UI, seamless wireless connectivity, and automatic cartridge refilling with alerts. The vision is to make printing fun and intuitive, thereby reviving demand. To realize this, he is seeking a $10 million investment to develop the hardware, software, and ecosystem needed to launch the "Apple of printers."

Hey Sharks, I'm raising $10 million to build the Apple of printers. Printers are stuck in the 1990s and 2000s. You got Epson and you got Brother. We gotta bring down Big Brother, man. They've got a monopoly on printers. Why is there no beautiful Apple printer? Like, imagine a nice white glass sleek printer. Beautiful UI, super simple, right? AirPod level connectivity, you know, auto-refilling cartridges every time you're empty. Maybe it sends you an alert. And you just say yes, like, "Oh, it'd be so nice." "Who prints things anymore?" you might ask. Well, nobody. But maybe they would if it was fun to print things. Like, what if it was fun to use a printer? Can't a boy dream?
