    give away the razor - sell razor blades for life

    Its 2 things IMHO
    One is selling ink - ink per gallon is some of the most expensive stuff we buy - every. 8000$per gallon http://www.popsci.com/gear-gadge…

    two is the way the printer is programmed to behave, the cartridges are quite precise pieces of machinery, and need to be cleaned and used every once in a while to stop clogging. - the amount the printer may OVERdo this, is probably related to point #1

    had an Epson R1800 - beautiful stuff, angry every time I had to go do sam flax for more ink. Which was almost once a week for a bit - 'here comes the ink man'
    Epson was recently slapped a class action lawsuit because of their practices with inks. The printers wasting ink, and reporting empty cartridges when not actually empty.
