Is this a compliment or an insult?

Thanks. I will try these. I tried one of them before, but it didn't
work. It doesn't work for all models.

I think dynamite is a good thing, though I have this mental image of
J.J. Walker from "goodtimes" slapping his hands, doing a twist and
yelling "dy-no-mite". That's never a good thing.

The demos even if they dont' have cartridges in them always have the
cartridge number they require. HPs have nice little circles and
triangles as well.

The boxes often contain the model number which they are good for, but
because there are so many models they have to print it really small.

Insult? No insult.

Measetyke wrote some near-incomprehensible gibberish, as usual, so I did
my best to translate (decipher and guess) what he truly wanted to say
to you :-). But without altering the original article! No, I have no
reason to insult. I'm not a troll. I'm simply one of the resident
members of this newsgroup who refills his own cartridges. This act alone
frightens Measekite to death as he keeps insisting it'll ruin my
printer (he has nothing better to do). It's a typical troll response
because he's never used any non-Canon inks so he has zero experience and
zero credibility. I've been using them for near 10 years now. It costs
me a buck or something to fill a cartridge. Probably a bit higher now
that I've gone to smaller refill bottles from a different source
(HobbiColors). I stopped counting as my cost is "near negligible" when
compared to what it would cost me if had I used genuine Canon cartridges
- about $120 CAD in Canada for a set of 5. That's an insane price to ask
anyone to pay for something as stupid as ink!!!! I enjoy the feeling of
being able to print out entire phone books, if I had to, and not wince
at the cost. I run two printers this way (plus I have one in storage).
