The question itself could be a news paper headline.
I want your opinion on Hewlett Packard’s brutally expensive ink cartridges. Am I the only person who thinks that HP is extorting money from owners of their crappy home/office printers by making them pay $20+ for new cartridges??
In comparison, these cartridges contain as much plastic as the average McDonald’s kid’s toy, except with chemicaly engineered liquid inside. The cost of prducing one cartridge can’t be more than $5-10 for HP meaning their profits on each sale is at least 200%! To me that is alarming.
1) Does anybody else think this is more or less just consumer extortion? (I paid more for ink this weekend than I did for 60L of gas)
2) Can somebody recomend a cheaper solution? (I’m stuck with this HP printer for a while now so a new one isn’t an optoion)
Thanks
Sammy

Try re-fills. I hear that you can get cartriges re-filled cheaper than you can buy new ones. not sure where you can get it done though..
I agree dude. Have a hp printer myself. last time got the cartridges filled at some photo place and they didn’t work. Printed all in green, red etc. Print was smeary So we’re stuck with it. Consolation is that ALL printer cartridges are expensive. It’s a passing technology; in 10 yrs printer cartridges will be gone.
The office stores by the refills are over 100 dollars never use it.
The prices of the refills first you can get them filled at some of the next printer get them filled at some of the refills first you can.
