  • It was around $60 for a full set of ink (colour and black and white) when we grabbed some a month or so ago, so about average I think. When you think about printers, what brands do people talk about? HP, Brother and Epson, right? Canon I think isn’t really trying hard here, printers are just an offshoot of their camera business, do they make much else that isn’t cameras or camera related?


  • I’ve got a Canon TS642A that’s serving us well here. My Brother was giving me problems, mostly in wireless connectivity so we replaced it with this, which was I think the second cheapest Canon we could find, and we’ve only replaced the cartridges I think once in the last year, though we don’t use it all that much. On Linux, I don’t think it even needs drivers, its… Postscript I think? Setting up the wireless was a bit tricky, but once up and running, it’s been rock solid.




  • True, I’m not sure what the solution is, but saying the rules only apply to certain players rubs me the wrong way. And that’s not even getting started on how much of the threat comes from US automakers refusal to produce electric cars until they were staring down a gun, plus how much they want to sell large expensive vehicles so they get nice large paychecks. Sure, China could and prolly is subsidizing their electric car industry, but we could do that too, in a way we already are with the tax credit only applying to American made vehicles.
