Subject: Re: Planned Obsolescence
The real trick is changing the ink cartridge design every few years. I sent a perfectly good Apollo (Thai built HP) to scrap because the ink cartridges transmuted to unobtainium, and I never had any success with refill kits. I had an HP multi-function machine that committed suicide just as the cartridges were becoming hard to find.
I found the Canon I am now using in the neighbor's trash.
