Geoff, one way that they can make it stick is because most of them, I
believe, use a proprietary ink formulation. Thus, if they were to receive a
warranty claim on a printer that used out-of-spec ink in generic
cartrridges, then they'd be able to tell by that and would choose not to
honor the warranty, most likely. In addition to getting those spectacular
results with the photo-quality printers, these inks serve this purpose, as
well.
