One of my friends refuses to buy ink. Instead, he just buys a new printer that comes with ink because it's less expensive. Genius? Or waste?

@5t3ph I did the same thing. Bought a new printer for $25, much less than the ink for the one I had

@5t3ph if he sells printer or donates it then good. But if tosses then very wasteful and polluting

@5t3ph Money saving, but overall wasteful. My father-in-law did the same thing for a long time. Now he gets cartridges.

@5t3ph Just freecycle the old one. i'd go for new if the cost was cheaper.

@5t3ph It's a waste because, as I understand it, those printers only have partially full ink cartridges, just to get them through demo mode.

@5t3ph Just saw this. I thought that the cartridges that come with the printer are only part filled? Anyway, it's not good eco sense to buy!

@5t3ph Big time waste of money. He's most likely not getting a full cartridge of ink with those new printers.

@5t3ph It's not about the money, it's about a perfectly good printer going in to landfill, and more resources used to make another one!
