Hmm, not sure I like this one as much as the camera app icon. With the camera icon you could see it was a camera or the actual thing. This you are just looking down at it. May I suggest a different angle?
I agree with Tyler. I would not have recognized it as a printer. It's the angle but also because the printed output is a solid black print. I'm not sure what that's supposed to represent. If it's supposed to be an "icon" then I think it needs to be more iconic.
Your craftsmanship is beautiful though, as always!

Currently working on a printer icon to match the camera icon I made the other day. What do you think?

That printer has taken some solid damage and yet, looks beautiful and works fine. Damn that's good.

there's some inconsistency in the clarity of the reflection versus the beautifully munged-up texture of the surface, but this is nice stuff!

but i do agree with tyler -- as an icon i'm not sure this really reads as "printer" at first glance

Would look brilliant for a page header/background, but as an icon for a printer it's not instantly recognisable.

I agree with Justin, the textured surfaces are not that reflective, otherwise amazing work as always!
