Default Konica Minolta = LOL

So our in-house printer is maintained by Konica Minolta staff who deliver ink and misc. stuff like you would order pizza; we get ink free, as part of our contract. When we run out, we order another cartridge of Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, or Black (K).
To make a long story short, their service sucks and they are always several days late with delivery, despite a guarantee of same day service. After much back and forth hissy-fits and a special V.I.P. of some sort giving a personal visit and usage audit (they wanted to see the actuall flyer we printed; they didnt believe we actually used the ink we claimed we used), look at the ink they left for us:





Each box is one cartridge. Uber expensive, lol. I laughed my butt off when I saw they were willing to throw away all this money just to get us to leave them alone. Made my day

Nice.

I have a Konica-Minolta color laser at home. I love the output, but I print a LOT. The cartridges are $200 a piece and don't last very long.

I would kill for a stash like that!
