Yes, but "That's not a bug, it's a feature." It makes the
cars harder to steal. I don't mind the keys, but they are pricey
to replace. And if it bugged me, I could always put the key in
a conducting bag like the one that came with the car's toll paying
tag.

I would not buy such a printer, and I think most people
wouldn't. Don't worry about it too much, it's not a good business
model. I know the printer manufacturers would love them, but it
would definitely cripple their sales.
