How much I would love if EU pulled a USB-C on printer ink/toner.
“All printers must be compatible with one of these X possible formats of ink/toner. Lockdown is forbidden too”
Sure the printers would be more expensive but I am sure we would see an incredible improvement in quality and decrease in ink/toner cost
Probably because everyone but Brother would step out of the market.
Win?
Oh no step brother printer, don't leave the market.
"This is the ink we use. Everyone use the same ink. Cheaper, easier, better for everyone."
"But sir, that sounds a lot like something Communists would do!"
The famous Marxist customer protection
Customer protection sound super communist.
How much I would love for America to stop letting it's corporations get away with these things so we won't have to wait for the EU
Long time Brother Laser Gang member here, and toner cost is not an issue. Averaged over the last decade it’s cost me like a couple bucks per year.
