I don't think printers are a dying industry. But they're a commodity where nothing new happens anymore and sale volumes are pretty stable. But companies try to figure out how to increase their margins anyway they can, which leads to all these scammy tactics.

I _wish_ printers would die. I've hated them with a passion ever since I've had my first job as a computer "operator" where I had to feed and align perforated paper forms to monster IBM printers. The boundary between electromechanics and software is a very dirty place.
