How does someone downvote? It is clear the ink market is a racket. Also clear there is clear indication that the printers are designed to use as much ink as possible as fast as possible just like their software tells you to buy new cartridges when you still have 100s of pages of ink left.
Were you mad because I also disparaged Used Car salesmen?

I have to buy a printer today. I've never been more unhappy about shopping for technology.
My dilemma is that I need to print things so infrequently that it makes inkjet a less-than-ideal choice. But, when I do need to print, my production requirements are varied and specialized -- photos, labels/envelopes/cardstock, double-sided, etc. A color laser in my price range tends to be mediocre at photos and not very adept at handling specialized paper. 80% of what I print is in color.
I may just have to settle for a multi-function inkjet again. Looking at the Epson WF-7610. Does wide-format printing, auto-duplex printing and auto-duplex copy and scan. $150 for the printer. A set of genuine ink goes for $49 on amazon.
