It is the sole reason. Cleaning ink jet jets takes a lot of ink and they do count on this to sell more ink. Excellent argument for Color Laser printers. I used to get ink cartridges once every 30-45 days making for an expensive proposition. Since I purchased a laser it is every 3-4 months for toners, and I print every day. Since the price of Color Lasers have gone down, way down, then the whole idea of color ink jet is obsolete!!!! -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
