What would serve the customers better, was if printer manufacturers failed to sell printers at absu

Many printers are thrown, out because they did not seem to work anymore. But if you look closely at them, they just need to be reset or otherwise lured into thinking that they are brand new appliances that have not printed a page.
It turned DR's magazine Cash on Tuesday night, including an example which saw ten random printers found at the recycling was sent to a repairer who easily got eight of them work again.
The number of printed pages will apparently be registered lake forest california and when the printer manufacturer as expected, for example, a pillow for excess ink may be clogged and should be replaced, the printer stops and gives an incomprehensible error message, even though in practice there is nothing wrong with the printer, explained repairman .
The same problem applies ink cartridges via a built-in chip can notify the ink level. But in order to maintain sales of expensive original ink, the ink cartridges also sign error and fault printer if, according to the chip calculations are printed lake forest california too much with one print cartridge, whether lake forest california there is still ink in the cartridge, or have been refilled. A quick reset of the chip can also be 'dead' printer to function normally again.
None of printer manufacturers would in an interview respond Cash on what happens or why it happens, lake forest california leaving communication to the Association IT industry, which would not stand for the interview, but sent a written message.
The message here was that no manufacturers are working with 'planned obsolescence' of the products. The error messages is a service lake forest california for customers so that they get the message that there is a possibility of error, lake forest california for example, the ink overflows if the print collection pad is filled, was the message. Similarly, an error message about low ink holding a service so that it does not start with a large print job, later to be discarded, says the industry's explanation.

I agree with George. One example that demonstrates this amply, is an experience that one of my friends had: He had bought a cheap printer / scanner primarily for the scanner function, since he already had a printer. But he thought he might as well use the print function until the ink was used. But at the same moment, the printer reported low ink, he could not scan anymore.
What would serve the customers better, was if printer manufacturers failed to sell printers at absurdly low prices lake forest california and then shift the cost of ink and toner: The practice is similar to narkopusheres "first fix is free" policy, and users have trouble figuring out the real cost of selecting a specific printer: There is rarely in the prospectus what new ink cost and how long a cartridge rows.
What print their own "now I'm lake forest california worn out" messages are concerned, they are sincerely redundant: Users can easily see when the print quality deteriorates or mechanics fails and assess whether it is bad enough that they will scrap the printer, send it in for repair or just live with the problems.
And, yes, refillable printer lake forest california cartridges would definitely benefit customers. Manufacturers' song about the poor quality using non-original ink / toner is no different than car factory song about original spare parts: For the most part there is no difference in quality, and when finally, the customer can choose another supplier next time.
It is clear that the current model is the one that works best for manufacturers - otherwise there have been a variety lake forest california of "good" printers that were more expensive but the cartridges could be bought cheaply / made himself / was a funnel back of the printer where you could pour ink in. The mechanism that applies is psyykologisk - people are bad at Total cost of ownership, but is up for grabs for cheap deals. Psychological experiments have repeatedly shown that we would rather have a penny now than three dollars a week. We buy it cheap, though it may not pay off in the long run.
So if it is implemented in practice, it must therefore be pulled down people's throats through legislation. How would you do it? Should it be banned from selling lake forest california printers with ink cartridges cost more than 10% of the printer's lake forest california value? How to avoid EU rules in this area? How do you people do not just order the cheap printers from China instead?
I guess that I have also experienced it with the printer could not scan because lake forest california there was a lack of ink. But I do not think that my current printer does, maybe it was my old HP did it. My current printer starts quite a long time in advance to warn of low ink, but I'm not changing ink cartridge before the printer really lake forest california do not want to print more. Another mistake I sometimes experience is when I have to scan or print and it does not respond even when the printer is turned on. Whether lake forest california this is due to the WiFi connection that it does so by j
