lxjuan08 Watch out HP, Rico, Kyocera, and Xerox. HP has turned theirs back on the Resellers and Authorized Service Providers ove the last few years, and Xerox has been doing that for the last Decade. I say it will be better for the consumer if it's better for the Authorized Sellers, and Authorized Service Providers.
