[Digital BW] Re: HP Discontinuing Some Printer Models?

2010-04-11 by john

Pretty much.

What is really useless though is Epson's practice of cutting off the supply of parts for our older printers so we can't keep them running.

I called Compas Micro last week to see about ordering a print head for my 9600 so I can have one to keep me going when my head eventually goes out, now that we are locked out of the new Epson's for alternative 3rd party BW inks.

The guy as Compas was really nice but said, sorry we can't sell them anymore, Epson won't let us. I said why. He said, well they say that people were using them for the wrong reason.  I'm serious, the wrong reason,  :-). Which is, keeping our printers going so we don't have to buy new ones that we don't want or need. So keeping me from replacing my head in the 9600 is supposed to convince me to buy a 9900? I don't think so.
