    doesn’t help that printer ink is one of the most expensive liquids in the world and the whole business model of printer companies is based on selling overpriced ink, so much so that they sell printers at a loss and then try to block out third party cartridges

        I tossed my Canon ink printer in the trash lol.

        it started with low on cyan, so I did what it asked for and replaced the whole ink set, but then found out that the previous ink has dried on the ink tuner since I haven’t used the printer for ~6 months and didn’t feel like spending any more money on this shit.

        So I got my myself a laser brother printer and it’s been kicking for over 6 years now
