I can understand their altruistic concern on our behalf (and it also
would reflect badly on their printer too - people don't always look
for the real reason - oh, it's that damn printer), but if you consider
a multinational franchise like Cartridge World, with their millions
of customers, it's not in CW's interest to cock it up. I've yet to have
a problem with their refills (40% or less of a new cartridge) and
they do seem to be up-to-date with ink developments

Exactly the grumble when the thread started. Knock-down h/w
price to hook you and then expensive ink to reel you in. Not an
unreasonable or unexpected strategy but is does ranckle
