You are certainly correct that you don't have to prove anything about

your being an MVP to any of us. But as I've pointed out here before,

you continually claim to be an MVP in the face of all the very many of

us who don't believe you.

 

You haven't provided a single shred of evidence that you're an MVP.

And you continue to ignore the challenges to your being an MVP that

many of us have presented. Why should *anybody* believe you?

 

If you're really an MVP, it would really be easy for you to stop all

our attacks and disbelief. Simply prove it. Provide a link to your

profile, as Gary suggested.

 

Your continued refusal to do so speaks volumes about you. *Nobody*

here believes you're an MVP, except possibly an occasional newcomer.

And even the newcomers quickly get straightened out by others.

Oh, you're talking about there being genuine cartridges on the site. You're

right, there are a few. That's why I asked, you scum. I tried lots of models

and only came up with knock-offs.

 

As for who you are, there's no question about that, is there? You're a tiny,

squeezed-off ball of hippo dung, not even worth drying for the fuel.

That is crap. A printer mfg can withhold warranty services if the

offending ink caused the issue with their printer. They state that in

their warranty as well. Do not listen to the holy one. Call up the

printer mfg tech support and ask them if they will honor a warranty if

the crap ink they used caused their printer to malfunction.

That certainly is easy to do. The quality is lower and the ink fades

faster so either the mfg has to admit patent infringement or their

product is not the same.

Hi Gary:

 

You've hit the nail on the head. I too know Leythos. Not just his Internet personna but

the REAL person behind the Internet personna and he is a well respected businessman and

has done great service for the USA.

 

As Tom has noted, this is Christopher Butts [aka; PCBUTTS1] again. Orginally Microsoft

called him out for his abuse of people on the MS News server, he was blocked from posting

by the news server admin by their server filters. Unfortunately due to changes in who

managed the news server, the filters were removed and when Butts realized this he started

posting as himself. Worse, he started publicly falsifying credentials by add [MS MVP] as

a posting tag. Based upon this falsification of credentials his posts were summarily

removed from the news server. To thwart this action, Butts has been 'nym shifting but

still publicly falsifying credentials by adding the tag MS MVP.

 

I'm sure you access the private MS MVP news service/lists so I know that you are well

acquainted with his history of unethical Internet practices as well as his ongoing

plagiarism

Why ask HERE? WHERE you buy your carts from, or whether it is a rip

off or not, has NOTHING to do with XP.

 

Ask elsewhere

Pointing you to my profile will not change a thing except make all you troll

MVP's start sending even more emails to MS. It will make all you evil trolls

know exactly what programs are mine which as it stands right now are

actively being promoted in over 4 forums including mine. That sorry a$$$$ PA

bear, David Lipman, the stalker Leythos and others will continue their chock

full of lies email campaign against me by sending more emails to the people

I do business with. It won't change nothing in this NG.

And if all that were true then the great MS can't stop me, sure they stop

everybody else but I'm invincible. You certainly tried real hard to stop me

and have failed in every attempt. People don't believe the BS lies you try

to tell then in those emails David and do you know why? Because they already

have the proof sitting right in front of them. I wonder just how many of you

losers have actually contacted Christopher Butts and felt like an idiot when

it was not me.

Incompetence on the part of MS does not make you invincible, just a lucky

a** hole.

 

It's in the very nature of the Usenet that you can post pretty much anything

you want to. It's your choice whether to be a lying sh* t or not.

That was the kind of answer I expected. It's entirely clear to all of

us that the reason you do not prove you are an MVP is that you can

not. You're not fooling anyone.

If they cause the problem you warranty can be voided.

Those who want quality and more resistance to fading but I guess that is only applicable to HP, Epson and Canon.  Maybe with brother is makes no difference.

For the benefit of those that don't know, you should know that this guy

is what I consider the village idiot of the printer newsgroups he

frequents. He constantly drones on about how we should all be buying

overpriced OEM ink cartridges and never shows any signs of intelligence

on the matter. The only reason he can promote to support using OEM ink

is fading which has never proved a problem for those of us that uses

compatible inks. He has never used these inks himself but thinks he is

an expert regarding them. Just realize that you're dealing with an

idiot so don't expect a fruitful, intellectually stimulating interchange

with him.

Usually the crap in works in most of the printers. If you print quite a

bit then the risk of clogging is reduced but not to the point of OEM

ink. If you do not print much then you take your chances. The ink

quality is also below OEM and the risk of fading is much higher. You

spend less but in reality you do not save money because you are not

getting the same thing.

 

Almost all of the generic vendors will not tell you the maker of the ink

so it is difficult to track in the marketplace.

 

PCWorld has an interesting article on this subject this month where they

even softpedaled the perils of the aftermarket ink but their conclusion

in about what I am telling you here. Even so it is an interesting read.

 

You cannot believe most of what you read here in favor of this type of

ink as many are in the business or associated with someone who is in the

ink or printer business and they will never tell the truth.

 

Still others do not have the discerning capacity to properly judge the

results since they are blinding to what they believe are savings.

 

So if you do not print a great deal the amount you do not spend on OEM

ink will not be that much.

 

 

Now Pantone (for the Epson) makes high quality aftermarket ink but you

will find that it is expensive.

Junior aka Jerk Junior because he cannot compete as bad as he is with

the Jerk Senior is one of those who does not like it when someone tells

the truth about non OEM ink. Who knows what he think of the PCWorld

article.

Read PCWorld you get better quality and lower fading.

These lies contradict the test results in PCWorld and Wilhelm Labs both

having more respect then this aftermarket shill.

Hey Junior he sounds to me like he got your number.
