Digital BW, The Print

Maybe time for the DOJ to get involved. They are investigating Apple for their practices which are less draconian than Epson. If you remember HP came unstuck with their toner policy. Years ago they fought like heck to not allow 3rd party toners and lost.
 
Maybe if we have a large enough groundswell someone might take notice

Exactly. ImagePrint...StudioPrint...Bowhaus.... alternate inksets.... 
Piezography in particular. 
If it ain't Epson, it ain't gonna go into an Epson, or work with an 
Epson.... and Epson won't even give us matte AND Photo black alternating in a 
printer after they removed it from the 4000. Epson has been at war with it's 
customers since.
