You don’t get to decide what people are paying for. HP and customer who sign the contract do. If the contract says they’re paying for the right to print, not the ink, then that’s what they’re paying for. I wouldn’t use this plan because I don’t print enough to make it worth it, but that doesn’t mean they are evil for offering the option. If it’s hidden in the UI that’s bad. OP sounds a lot more surprised than he should be.
