[Ham-Computers] Griping about printers and such.

[KD7JYK DM09]

: Kodak with their throw the printer away and save on buying color 
cartridges!
: Now who would have thought that it would be more cost effective to replace
: their printer instead of the color cartridges!

Clearly not the people who see how much LESS space the cartridges take up in 
the trash, not to mention that the printer is considered hazardous waste and 
must be disposed of properly at great expense.  Like TVs, applicances, CFLs 
and CRTs, which have a $125 disposal fee due to the tube, printers litter 
the roads like soda cans and coffee cups, the fine is cheaper than the 
disposal costs OR finding someone who can recycler the item, or in my case, 
the $40.50 in gas to drive to the nearest recycler....
