For now, you can get inkjet printers that use liquid ink. Ostensibly Canon wants me to use Canon brand ink for my printer, but there's nothing stopping me from buying some off brand and dumping it in the tanks

    Tank inkjets tend not to be subsidized because of the lack of lock in. They're considerably more expensive than those that use cartridges. So you are paying for the ability to put in whatever you want.
