"Yes, even with the defaults set to "Black Only", changing the black ink is not enough. The printer simply WILL NOT WORK until all 4 cartridges are replaced. "
This smells like your load of carp under the Arizona sun.
For most users, the better option is to buy a budget monochrome laser like the HP 1102W: hundred dollar printer, twenty-dollar toner cartridges that last me a year and never dry out for infrequent printers. For the occasional photograph, I order from Snapfish for less than I used to pay for inkjet cartridges. Plus, online photo services give a range of finish options, like large sizes and gicleé, that I could never do myself.
Yes, Epson and Canon printers beat the current crop of Fiorinized HP inkjets. Too bad the horrible software support makes then unviable for most users. Last week I tried to install a new Canon all-in-one at a customer site, and discovered that the WiFi connection menus assume that your router has a WPS button. If it doesn't, you can't connect to your router with SSID and password and have to plug in as USB. And unlike on HPs, there's no option to temporarily connect USB and set up wireless from the computer.
We'll be able to revive Space Nutter Troll in a thousand years, when humanity fills the solar system. Then he can inveigh against the interstellar program.
The use of red as an identifying color by Republicans is an ironic reference to arbitrary media manipulation of party color assignments in line with political correctness. In TV election coverage, it was once conventional to use blue for Republican and red for Democrat. Then they began switching colors in alternate elections for "fairness", and that's when the Republicans decided to adopt red as their color.
In particular, those who see no value in space programs have no business commenting on proposals like this. If Mars is useless, then why not let Elon Musk waste his own money nuking it?

Only the part of it that runs on Windows, though. The big federal mainframes typically run Unix. Is the US Navy still WIndows-based? This could mean Iran pouring money into his campaign.
The centerpiece of McAfee's platform will be "A virus-free America." If we get an Ebola cure and more research on virus-based cancers, I'll be happy.
To invoke argumentum ad monsantium, you must be shilling for Big Chicken. Or to invoke argumentum ad pomum, you're one of those fanboix who just love eggs so much that whenever a hen clucks, you're standing in line to grab the egg, knowing that it has to be way better than yesterday's egg.
Nothing can match the IQ of dedicated videocams, but how many people who were out clubbing some evening and chanced upon one of those famed instances of police malpractice just happened to have a Red in their hands at the time? Not only does nothing beat the immediacy and ubiquity of a phone cam, but phones are "invisible" in the modern social context, whereas a Red tells everyone around you that You're A Filmmaker, rather than an invisible part of the crowd quietly capturing what's going on.
"Everyone knew Apple could create a device that looks like the Surface Pro, we just needed to know if it could be a true laptop replacement in quasi-tablet form."
And how good a laptop replacement is the Surface Pro, exactly? At two different customer sites this week, I had the same experience installing that treasured Windows 10 upgrade to two of those nice Windows laptops and desktops that have the touchscreen feature, and had come with 8.1. You install Windows 10, spend an afternoon cranking through the screens and watching it install its nineteen (the actual number) Windows Updates, and then it reboots - back into 8.1, giving the big old Microsoft Fuck You to all your efforts, and with not a peep as to what it might be objecting to about Dells that are only a few months old.
Windows 10: watch the steady trickle of defections to OS X become a mighty flood.
When you may need to bridge a long time without access to power, what's the difference, really, between carrying around multiple batteries for a device that has exchangeable batteries and carrying an external battery?
In the previous discussion, the appellate court decision against Lexmark was hailed as a grand opening up of the third-party replacement market for ink and tone cartridges. So the IP-industrial complex crushed our freedoms using a slightly different legal subterfuge this time - the effect is the same.
But wait until the TPP passes and we finally get to know what's in it. We will fondly look back on the freedoms we enjoy in the present day.
The context was a move by Xerox to use copyright to prevent users from substituting third-party printer cartridges for their own. Supposedly such a substitution would require reverse-engineering their copyrighted lockout software preventing substitute cartridges.
At the time, this very Lexmark attempt to prevent refill of cartridges came up, and supposedly there had been a court decision preventing Lexmark from enforcing this rule.

And color lasers are substantially cheaper than they used to be.

Using the term retard is a hurtful reference to those of the non-brain enabled persuasion. This means that you yourself are a Reactionary Derper.

"The fact that some Republican corporation made it is what makes it dangerous "
Does this means that liberals will refuse to eat disease-resistant "Frnkenchickens", while chowing down on infected birds?

Cheap technology like this can be deployed privately. No need to sit around and wait for the approval of people like you.
Prospectors could deploy large numbers of these to assay asteroids in bulk at low cost.
