HP Sued Because of Antitrust Violations The Giant printer ink producer HP and the Giant printer ink sales shop Staples, has been sued by someone who has become definitely sick and tired of the day after day legal highway robbery committed by the large brand name printer producers. This gentleman who has determined to take on these giants is from Boston and his name is Ranjit Bedi. I wonder what Mr. Bedi was thinking. It is emphatically no small matter to go up against HP and Staples and accuse them of collusion. Mr. Bedi has alleged in his proclamation that HP has paid Staples millions of dollars so that they would not trade generic toner or ink cartridges. The alleged agreement involves an agreement by Staples to only retail brand name cartridges. We all know that brand name cartridges and toner costs a lot more than the generic equivalents. For those of you who do not know it, the cost of manufacturing these brand name items are basically exactly the same as making a generic. HP and Epson executives have stated in interviews that the grounds for the high rates of the brand name printer ink is because of research and development costs. This is really a sad justification for charging such offensively high prices for their products. Research and development has a long time ago paid for itself and now it is pure profits on a massive scale. It is a well-known fact that the HP Imaging Division constitutes a very large proportion of HP's total profit. That is utterly no wonder considering that the printers itself are sold at cost.From then on, the bounty on printer ink just rolls in.The brand name printer manufacturers have been entirely at war with anyone producing a generic product that will work in their printers. The thing is, once the printer is bought it is no longer their printer. A buyer should be able to freely go and purchase a printer cartridge other than a brand name cartridge and use it in the printer. The brand name manufacturers are trying every trick in the book to stop these generic cartridges from working in the printers. One could say they sabotage the printer using embedded microchips to make certain that it will just work with a expensive printer cartridge sold by them. When we say high-priced, it is really an understatement. Ink cartridges can without difficulty be sold at four times the price of a generic cartridge. Keep in mind that the generic cartridge companies also make a sensible profit, so how much are the brand name manufacturers making. They are making huge profits and the money is coming right out of your pocket. Besides this extremely unethical practice by the brand name companies, an additional lawsuit has been brought about charging that the brand name companies are embedding software in the printer cartridge to prevent all the ink from being used up. At times there could be 15% or 20% ink still in the cartridge, yet the printer will tell you that you need to exchange the cartridge. It will not work any more until you position a different cartridge in the printer. This is just one more side of the daylight robbery being performed legally everyday. If you want to avoid this legal printer ink highway robbery, you will need to make an effort to put on trial generic brand cartridges. Many of the Chinese manufacturers have been able to make micro chips that can outfox the printer sabotage mechanisms. The quandary is to know where to go for such cartridges and still acquire them at a moderate price. One online supplier, Peachtree Ink does have several such cartridges and if they do not work for you then they do refund your money back.
