  • The Enterprise SKU I don’t believe has that added.

    We have to rely on the prep version mostly, which has the shenanigans. Fortunately, you can turn those things off after the fact.

    What we are fighting with now is trying to deploy an image without the advertised apps, but since they are provided by the CDN, which cannot be disabled (yet).











  • The real cost of an inkjet is that one needs to buy ink regardless of whether they print. It tends to dry out over a few months. If you don’t happen to use all the 100-200 pages, the money is wasted.

    In the past, just because the printer was on sale, I have been able to buy a cheap printer for less than new ink.

    I bought a brother a couple of years ago for just under $200. That was the cost of 4 sets of ink. I have replaced the toner a couple of times at $17 each. Each replacement has lasted me a few thousand pages.

    This was a replacement to a pair of brother printers of the same model I obtained via yard sale for a total cost of $10. These yard sale printers would have lasted longer if not for small children and dogs.

    I have probably printed 6k pages for the cost of $180 over the course of several years. Most of the printing has been school work for kids and forms in general.
