The Grouse: The Inkjet Refill Racket
2.12.2008 at 10:08pm - Comment by rhomp2002How about those of us who print using our inkjet printers. It is not economically feasible to do that printing on flickr or walmart etc. In that case the inkjet is still very much in the picture. I know that supposedly laserjet is cheaper but given my printer and the amount of pages I can print from one inkjet cartridge and compare that to the cost of laserjet toner the inkjet costs about half as much. I think I will just hold onto my printer for now. I have never printed a photo on it anyway and don't plan on doing so in the near future. I also use the same cartridges you show there with my HP Officejet Pro K550 and it works out just fine.
