"Right now Walmart is selling a printer for $28 which includes an ink cartridge, the cartridge by itself sells for more than that."

The rub CAN be that the cart in the printer when you buy it might not be FULL. Some here have reported this scheme.

I've got to say that my experiences with "generic" ink carts hasn't been zackly sterling. I bought two black carts for the same price as one Epson cart. Each cart lasted half as long as the Epson. Perhaps it was the supplier, and that WAS a couple of years back.

Anyone have really good luck with generic carts? Where did you get them?

I have heard the stories about short-filled ink cartridges too and it makes sense, but I personally have not come across it. I have now accumulated about a dozen printers by purchasing ones such as a Lexmard 605 with two cartridges for much less than the two cartridges sell for separately.

It makes sense although I am accumluating a lot of printers.
