Go into a store like Walmart and you will have 6 different HP printers, 1 epson, and empty spots where the 1 Lexmark sits. Once you get to rural areas you don’t have much of an option to specially when the point of purchase already limits your purchase options.

Most people will not drive 1-2+ hours to get more options.
