Yes.  Printers. Cleverly designed to waste resources.  I find the 
ML-1510 is great for prinitng back & white.  The HP printer does waste 
cartridges but I mostly use it for scanning and copying and printing 
photographs.  Plenty of recycled cartridges on eBay at low cost.  I 
have a local printer recycling shop who take the old cartridges. 

The Samsung colour laser printers are also excellent.  Plenty of those 
on eBay.  Also many recycled laser cartridges.
