- _piif 3y agoI wish. I will certainly do my part the next time I consider buying a printer but it's been shown again and again that the vast majority of people will always put comfort (and productivity) over ideology. I don't expect any meaningful loss of sales on their part from this.
- ryao 3y agoI decided to stop buying ink cartridges and switched to a monochrome laser printer years ago, but kept the old inkjet printer because it could do scans. I recently had to do a color print. Instead of buying new ink cartridges for my old HP printer, I purchased a new printer from Canon from walmart. Then I gave it away to someone who would use it. More recently, I decided to buy a color laser printer that can do copying so I do not need the HP anymore and will have the option of doing color prints immediately no matter how many years pass. I brought a Canon. Unlike HP printers, it lets you opt into mechanisms that disable third party toner. I just did some of the first prints with it and it is really nice.
