Fstoppers on YouTube: Printer Ink, It's a SCAM (www.youtube.com)

In this video, a Canon print cartridge is opened up and revealed not to contain the meagre 11.9 ml (0.4 fl oz) of ink it is advertised. The proposed solution is to buy a printer designed to be manually refilled with bottles of ink (such as the featured Epson EcoTank ET-2850), though it has only been tested briefly.

A replacement cartridge.

I kinda miss the days when printer ink cartridges actually comes with a reservoir bag for the ink. These days I just do my printing in the office. Honestly speaking, there should be laws against these kinds of cartridges.

And then there's the environmental impact with these kinds of cartridges, where these same companies white wash themselves as "we are ecologically cautious" spiels.
