Hey Cold Chilli - I work at Kodak and we agree with your ink table. It just shouldn't be! We launched a disruptive inkjet line that strikes at the heart of this issue. Kodak's inks are pigment based (not dye-based), last longer, and are up to half the cost of competitors cartridges. Ink cost comparison data is at: www.kodak.com/go/inkdata
Also check out this light hearted video that drives home the point!
Enjoy! tom
