From what a salesman told me, sending new printers is Canon's way of
dealing with the problems they encounter, which leaves us with this
alternative: either their printers cost next to nothing or the "new"
printers are refurbished printers. 

Either way, the news are good... while the printer is on garantee. But
when you buy a printer, do you expect it to last only 2 years?

When I told Canon spokespersons about my problem, they asked me how
old my printer was. I told them it was 3 years or 7000 sheets old.
They said it was "old technology" and just stopped short of  squarely
saying "Why don't you buy a new one"?

Let me tell you, that adds to the price of the ink.

I suggest you keep my address and write me back in 3 years.
