Why do home use printers come with such huge colour ink tanks?

[dug777]

I've been printing all my notes in colour for about a month now and the colour still hasn't run out (a nice shade of purple if you must know )

But a black ink tank twice the size would have been rather more useful thankyou Canon :|

Oh well i guess like console maunfacturers they make the money out of what they sell to use it, in this case ink

Inkjet printer ink is one of the biggest ripoffs known to man.

Would a laser printer pay off in the long run?

Yes.

Generic ink is also good.
