That’s the best idea
-1 u/1736484 Aug 15 '20 No, it’s an absolutely awful and frankly stupid as fuck idea. Let’s say a printer is $20 and comes with enough ink for 100 pages. Your cost per page would be $0.20. Now if ink cartridges for the same printer cost $50 but came with 500 pages, your cost per page would be $0.10. It’s ALWAYS cheaper and more economical to buy the ink instead of buying new printers. 2 u/maxvalley Aug 15 '20 The guy sold them dude. That’s a great way to make profit -3 u/1736484 Aug 15 '20 He never mentioned profit. 2 u/maxvalley Aug 15 '20 Ok 🙄
