    WordPress has a few ways you can do this. The normal one is by setting up a taxonomy for that, and that will let you nest the various items down as far as you need to. If you need a bit more “power” to that, you could set up a custom post type, but that could be overboard for what you want.

    It will also depend on where it’s used. Your example looks like you’re trying to organise products based on what printers that they suit, so if you end up using WooCommerce (as an example) that already has the ability to add taxonomies for attributes, which is what you’d use for this.

    If I was setting up that sort of store, I’d set up a hierarchical custom taxonomy for printers and have that has the brands, then models numbers, etc. That way you can assign each product to that model, or many models. That’s an easy enough thing to do with minimal coding.
