Time to give it to the HP printer company - yay!
Finally, have you ever asked yourself “why is this printer ink so expensive?”. Well this guy in the article linked has taken law into his own hands. He has a lawsuit against Staples for stocking expensive HP only ink and claims that Staples deliberately shuns 3rd party ink vendors and doesn’t carry them in their stores. What could this mean? Hopefully they go the next step and make HP and other printer companies to start accepting 3rd party inks!
On a side note, I always though it was funny that Fry’s, BestBuy, Staples, etc would offer you a free printer… it’s because they jack you on the ink!
