I have never understood the rage about ink being overpriced, yes the $/ml is high, but a few ml will last you a long time.

Unless your work requires you to print out a lot. You can run through a cartridge printing out a single manuscript for a novel.
There's also things like artificial expiration dates, saying that cartridges are out of ink when they're still half full, and the fact that, for low-end deskjets, you can literally throw the printer away and go buy another one (with ink) cheaper than you can replace the cartridges.
