Why is officejet 6700 black ink more expensive than the other colors

why is hp officejet 6700 black ink almost twice as expensive as the other colors?

The black cartridge is larger and has more than twice the ink of the standard color cartridges.
If you do much printing you might want to consider the XL version of the cartrdiges.  The 932XL is rated at 1000 pages for $32 compared to the standard black cartridge rated at 400 pages for $20.

    Why is the iTunes shop in Australia more expensive than the rest of the world?

    How do you know that there is not parity?
    Do you know Apples expenses in each country?
    Apple has to sell the music for the price that they can negotiate with the owners of the distribution rights in each country.
    Perhaps those who own the rights to distribute the music in Australia simply negotiated a higher price.

  • Why is the Touch more expensive than the phone?

    The iPhone which does MORE than the iPod Touch is $100 cheaper for the 32GB model! What the heck?!?
    iPhone 3G S 32GB $299
    iPod Touch 32GB $399

    The actual price is reflected in the 'No-commitment pricing': $599 (16GB) and $699 (32GB)
    To get the lower prices you must sign a 2 year contract and a portion of each month's payment goes to paying off the difference in price.
    If this 'no-commitment price' is true, then how come I don't see it listed in their online store?

  • Why is the unlocked iPhone more expensive than the iPad?

    I am using an old iPhone 3G on a prepaid network.  Love it.  Getting long in the tooth -- time to upgrade.  $650?!  The iPad is only $499 and way cooler (minus the phone part).  What gives, Apple?

    I am asking myself the exact same question as @keithfromclarkson. Why is the iPhone so darn expensive. My only reason, is because Apple can. People are buying it like hotcakes. But it still bugs me, cost of production of iPhone is significantly less than that for iPad consider the following:
    (All are 16GB models)
                        Retail cost    Cost of BOM + Manufacturing
    iPhone          $649             $207
    iPad 3           $599             $306.15
    iPad 3 4G      $629             $358.30

  • Why is apple ram so much more expensive than normal ram

    for 2 gb of apple ram for the dual 2.7 is about $300, this ram doesn't even have its own heatsink and is only CL3. why is ram with a heatsink and CL2( which is faster) about 200 $$ cheaper? is there any difference in the ram or is apple trying to make a big profit ?

    I found out that there is nothing special about the
    ram.. and the corsair ram is a lot faster and better
    So, is the Corsair ram you are talking about that which TigerDirect.com has advertised over at dealmac.com today. The after rebate price for a 1Gb stick of 4200 is about $45. Not too bad if it would work in a Quad.

  • Why calls to Ukraine via Skype more expensive than...

    Hello there!
     I often call to Ukraine from Canada to stationary and mobile phones. I would like to use Skype. But the phone companies offers a lowest rate than Skype. Why? Do you plan to change something?
      Now my phone calls to stationary phones cost 6 cents per minute. To mobile phones 9 cents per minute. No any extra fees.
     Please take this into consideration.

  • Why are itunes books so much more expensive than kindle books?

    I am a recent convert from Android to iPad and iPhone.  Even though I have the Kindle app on both devices and can read my Kindle books, it seemed to make sense to make any new book purchases through iTunes since I already purchase apps and music.  However, after comparing about a half dozen books on both Kindle and iTunes, the iTunes books were all higher in price by 30 to 50%.  This doesn't make sense to me, so I thought I'd throw it out as a question and see if anyone knew why.

    I'm struggling with the same thing. I prefer to buy all things Apple. If the prices were even close, I would, but I just found yet another book that I need for work where Kindle is literally half the price!!!!  One thing I won't do is end up with half of my ebooks in Kindle and half in iBooks, so if Apple doesn't fix this, I'm afraid I will have to buy all my books from amazon. And once you start down either path, it's hard to switch back, so I hope Apple is paying attention.

  • Why do X-Fi Drivers provide more functionality than the Audigy 2 Drive

    The X-Fi Drivers work with the majority of Audigy 2 soundcards. Why do Creative not mention this? It even allows Audigy 2 users to use Alchemy!
    It's obvious more people are having better luck with these drivers but it seems Creative don't realise they have backwards compatibility.
    Ok, sure you have to extract the download file yourself. But there's more functionality there. Why do Creative do this?

    They don't provide more functionality!? And it doesn't allow you to use ALchemy!?Creative's WDM drivers for DSP-based soundcards have always been architected on a common driver basis, but it doesn't mean the drivers will make an Audigy a X-Fi or vice versa. These drivers are more like NVIDIA's Forceware and ATI Catalyst... ALchemy does not load on the Audigy no matter what drivers you use, because it looks for EAX5 support before initialising. And usually the X-Fi version,?despite having a newer version number, has a positioning problem under OpenAL when used on Audigies.

  • Why is the black iPhone 4/4S more durable than the white?

    I've owned both a black and a white 4S
    The black was much more durable, mine flew out my hand and hit the tap, no damage just a big scratch to the back glass because thats where it hit, but it did make the back loose
    I had a white, and it smashed the back like 2 inches off concrete, I'm serious.. That's how fragile they are...
    I Now have A Galaxy S4
    Why is the black iPhone more durable than the white? I never understood that...

    Not sure what causes it, but here are your choices:
    1) bring it to a 3rd party repair shop and see what they say
    2) pay $149 for another replacement
    3) do nothing
    4) buy a new phone (iPhone or otherwise)
    Up to you.

  • IStudio in Phuket sell iPad more expensive than announce price

    I don't know how this happen but iStudio in Phuket Thailand (Phuket Alpha) sell iPad more expensive than the announce price by THB 500 for every model
    ex. iPad 16 GB wifi normally THB 15,900 but they sell at THB 16,400 for cash only and THB 16,892 for credit card
    Do you allow Apple Authorized Dealer to sell any product at higher than announce price? This is really ridiculous of how they do business.

    deggie wrote:
    That is not true, there is nothing illegal about Apple selling the iPad through a web of authorized resellers and specifying a maximum price that can be charged.
    And contrary to popular belief of some , the Laws of the USA don;t extend beyond its borders and are thus unenforceable. They cannot bind an overseas buyer to anything.
    Apple can of course refuse to supply as you say, but Apple cannot dictate US Laws outside of the US.

  • Why is Black more expensive than white?

    There is 2 whitemac books! Then a black one! Why does the black cost more than the high end white?
    Is one made of metal and the other one made of plastic? Are macbooks durible or more durible than the MacBook pro?

    The OP was not comparing the BlackBook to the low end WhiteBook. His question specifically was aimed at the high end WhiteBook compared to the BlackBook. If you add the 160 GB drive to the Whitebook so the specs are the same the BlacBook still cost 125 dollars more. Hence your paying more for it being Black. In my opinion the Black is well worth it.
    Check the link out you gave. All three come with one GB of RAM so your statement about more RAM was wrong. The only difference is the BlackBook has a 160 GB drive compared to the 120 GB drive in the high end WhiteBook.

    this is a user response forum, i'm not sure what you think we will know. Apple doesn't reply here. you would probably have to contact the main Apple HQ in Australia to have a chance to get any kind of answer.
