I'd make sure this isn't the case before you dismiss the printer you currently have because as I said, many printers pull this scam and thus you'll get poor performance out of the box once again.
That's very interesting but isn't that illegal? The first printer was bought from Bestbuy, the replacement came from Canon USA. Both ran out of ink with less than 100 pages printed.
