the printer ink scam continues

VitaMan's Avatar
This has got to be one of the biggest scams ever by major corporations.


I just paid $ 75 for 2 cartridges, one black and one for color. They will probably last 3 weeks.


Estimated cost to the company for a little ink and the cartridges: $ 5

Your estimate on production cost might even be a bit high.

My solution a few years back was to buy a nice color laser that you can swap the chips from cheap amazon replacement toner with the oem and use whatever you want. It needs replaced so I need to do some research and see what models this can still be done with but that is what has kept me in cheap printing for a while now
