At the lower end of the market the printers are sold below-cost and the profit is in the ink. Above that, there's laser printers, which are far less prone to this.

Are we looking for someone to sell an ink-based printer that will cost more up front than its competitors, and then willingly forego the revenue that comes from market ink prices?

Kodak tried that 10+ years ago. The experiment only lasted a year or two before the printers were discontinued for poor sales.
