The difference in cost between the OEM and very good third party cartridges is $108.00 per set ($90 versus $198). The printer, brand new, was only $113.00.
It has long been generally accepted that printers are sold at or below the cost to manufacture and distribute them. Any profit is in the ink or toner.
