I think it is Lexmarks fault. Back in the day when color ink jets were getting cheap enough that we could buy I went out and got a Lexmark 7000 series or some such (I remember the ad in PC World was of a naked woman that had a swim suit painted on her, and they say sex dont sell
) anyway, I wondered why it was so low until I had to replace the ink (and the color was an all in one), ACK WTF? I thought I was getting shaken down, well since I printed alot of text, I then went to a laser and now have an Epson that has 4 different ink wells for any color print needs.
I will never buy a Lexmark product, I dont have a problem with a company making a buck, BUT when I walk out feeling like a victim...
