  1. This will piss you of Louis, but I say, this is actually on the customer. Why? 1. You don't buy HP, even if it's the only MFC you can buy. You smuggle in nearly anything else. 2. You buy the device you intend to use. If you expect heavy duty printing and some light scanning, then by all means. Buy yourself a ink printer. If it's the other way around, buy a laser and if you only expect to scan, you buy stand alone scanner. And finally, since the market clearly doesn't work, you need more legislation, specifically change patent and copyright law and change your taxation, to prevent companies from being able to raise these shinnanigans.
