Need I remind you that 2 sets of refills costs more than a new iP4000. Translated, one purchased set of refills cancells the free set that comes with a new printer. Now the second purchased set costs more than the printer! So consider THAT your first lesson in business knowledge. Add on question: Does it cost you more than half the cost of a new vehicule to fill it with gas to make it move? Should it be any different with ink? Is ink 20 times more expensive to manufacture? Automobile R&D & advertising is far costlier than the few guys working on your next printer. I read that OEM ink sales are in the billions annually. And, Canon printheads are designed to fail (why else the easy take out feature), therefore becoming a new source on revenue for Canon. A less than $5 part that brings in close to $100 for Canon. A cash grab all around, nothing less. Nelson |

Hardware is reaching its limitation where printers are concerned. Ink formulation improvements need to catch up to match possible hardware improvements which means R&D costs shift. I'll make this real simple. What costs Canon more to manufacture, a printer or a set of ink cartridges? Now if you say the printer then we just need to stop the discussion here because you are blatantly ignoring reality. It is absolutely absurd that Canon charges the same for two sets of cartridges as it does for an iP4000 printer. If Ford charged the same for two tanks of their brand of gasoline as you paid for the car we would all be outraged and buy gas from a third party supplier and gladly pay $2.00/gallon. Now for my original point, when people like measekite buy OEM ink it intices Canon to sell the printers that use the ink at a reduced cost in order to maximize their mega-profits on ink sells. If the vast majority of us used third party ink they would need to raise the price of their printers to keep profits up. I can't explain this any simpler than this. Almost everyone, except apparently you and measekite, knows Canon, Lexmark, Epson etc. have been practicing this business model for years and years. So as I said, all you OEM ink buyers please don't stop. I've grown accustomed to purchasing inexpensive inkjet printers. |
