OK, so my printer cartridge dies. the little HP 45.

I went to the local "china-Mart" store and was shocked at how much a
little plastic cartridge with some kind of coal dust can cost.

I don't print much. I don't have much reason to, but dang!

Somebody said in the case of their older Lexmark printer the cartridge
was higher than getting a new printer with cartridges preloaded.

amazing.

The razor is cheap, but the blades will kill ya.

My color laser takes four carts, each retailing for about $90. But each
is good for about 2500 copies. I print mostly in black, so I get about a
year out of the other three carts.

My wife has a monochrome laser in her home office. About 4000 copies
from each $70 cart.

Are you using an inkjet printer? Sounds like it.

Yep, an HP Deskjet 932C

a cart will last me about a year because like I said I don't use it
that much But I went over to ebay and there's lots of places selling
them for 7-9 bucks with free shipping. One place has well over
100,000+ feedback rating, so. I'm thinking that may be the ticket for
me in the future.

Keep your eye on the ads and when you see a $69 printer, buy 10. When
the first one runs out of ink throw the whole thing away and open up the
box with the second printer.

D'oh. These days you can buy a monochrome laser printer for under $200.
It prints better than an inkjet printer, and the carts can be anywhere
from $50 on up for a cart that prints thousands of copies.

Yeah, it's a pretty good scam. I did the math one day and these guys
in some cases are getting over 5 thousand dollars a gallon for ink...
Sort of like gas inching up while the price for barrel is going down.
Where is Barakolypse on this corporate rip off?
