Today I celebrate the death, the final, long awaited, & celebrated death of my 6th and last ever Office Jet Printer.
These printers are amazing, mind you - they've printed 10s of thousands of documents for me, but oh how I paid the price for every single one of them.
I will limit my future purchases with the companies who gouged me so much for ink. That's how costly it has been. I will reward my future business with companies who really want to help the small business owner.
I'm testing out the Epson ET-3750 Tank printer. So far so good. It has so many quality settings I feel like not only am I in complete control of how much ink I use, but the ink is priced as it should be, a price that helps small business owners, not take advantage of and monopolize them.
Goodbye HP Office Jets forever, hello epson tank printers from here on out into the forseable future.
Call me a conspiracy theorist if you will, but I'm confident the printing manufacturers knew how to monopolize their consumers - but as the tank printer custom rigs got more popular (i tried a few back in the days) they hopefully finally got the picture - monopolize your customer base, and they will rebel.
I hope it hurts their pockets as it did ours. I've literally spent thousands on ink for my small business. No more!
