Because a good 2D printer costs peanuts.

Yes but then you have to buy cartridges from the manufacturer who has the control to say there are empty when in fact they are not. It is a completely closed ecosystem. I believe customers deserve better alternatives.

There's a very lively market of refilled / aftermarket cartriges which lowers the incentive to fix these issues.
