I'm Getting Fed Up With Printer Manufacturers! :x

[abajan]

I always knew that many of them sold their printers cheaply (even below cost, in some instances) so they could make money (BIG money) by artificially inflating the prices of the inks. Heck, they could even afford to give away the printers. This is a similar business model to the one employed by razor manufacturers. (That's why generic inks are so much cheaper. It's also why printer manufacturers try to scare us away from purchasing generic inks by warning that we'll void the warranty etc.)

But I never knew there was such a thing as high-yeild and standard ink cartridges.

If you spend more on the printer, you'll generally spend much less on the ink for it.

Just do your research and you won't get burned.

I found that out the hard way gtalum.

Can cold weather affect a computer? The work computer I use is at the other place of business. No one has been there and the heat was not on. It gets really cold in that trailer, I mean COLD!! I went to that shop yesterday and the computer would not even boot up.

Actually, computers like cold better than warm because they generate a lot of heat. Back in the old giant mainframe days the computer rooms were chilled to 50F.

Even when they are off?

It is possible that extreme temperature changes can cause soldered connections to loosen up. That could be why that computer wouldn't boot up cold.

Everytime I went inside a computer room, it was always cold. They use the AC at full blast.
