They are renamed Lexmark printers, but, as they always say if you call tech
support, other cartridges won't or often don't work, as has been my
experience twice now. Not sure what, exactly, they do to them to prevent
other ones from working, but sure some others here might know.
As for the transdermal patches, sounds pretty cool, just so long as you or
the pharmacy doesn't get mixed up and fill the medical patches with ink or
the ink patches with medicine!
What do you mean about WalMart not paying taxes? Are you talking about
illegally not paying them or finding some legal way not to do so?

Walgreen's yes, it's a good store. Walmart no, it's owned by evil trolls
who lure you with phony low prices, then steal your money by not paying
taxes.
interesting note from slashdot:
"Hewlett-Packard's microneedle technology, used in its inkjet cartridges,
could soon be used in transdermal patches to deliver a time-controlled
release of drugs to patients. Still at the prototype stage, the patch
will likely be 25 mm square in size and 3 mm thick. It will incorporate an
array of microneedles that are between 75 and 100 microns, which will
penetrate the top dry layer of the skin, also known as the stratum
corneum. Above the microneedles is an array of wells, [and] those wells
can hold one or more drugs, the device has "an active mechanism to push
the drug through the needle"."
...so in the future maybe you can go to Walgreens to refill your
transdermal patches as well.
That means you could maybe get transdermal patches filled with inks for
painless permanent tattoos. Could be the next fad.
BTW, who makes Dell printers? Lexmark? Can their cartridges be refilled
successfully? Do they have a microchip that makes them fail if you refill
them?
