There needs no ghost from of the grave to tell us this!
Don't buy this crap. The printers are cheap, the cartridges are outrageous. The problem this scam, from Lexmark's point of view, is that nobody will ever buy a second Lexmark printer. Yet another example of a company cutting its own throat through sheer greed and a lack of long-term vision. I blame Microsoft for this kind of brutal cuthroat screw-the-public shit that has infected the industry. In this too they are the industry leader.

A second lawsuit will at least produce some bad PR, which will counter Bill's recent informercial-style interview in USA Today.
