subject: chip in the cartridge?

RJT>I'd heard about some manufacturer putting a chip in printer refill
cartridges, 
RJT>and then using copyright to keep aftermarket vendors from making them.  I'd
RJT>thought that it was one particular vendor doing that,  but the guy I was
RJT>talking to at a computer store today says to me "they're all
doing it".

RJT>Is this the case?  Anybody know?

RJT>If so,  maybe I'm looking for a used laser,  instead...

Yes, It is so! I had enough cartridges on hand so that I am just
starting to wonder what to do.
