Epson inkjets have nice (technology wise) piezo-electric nozzles, so you don't replace them (printing head). HP inkjet printers have filament that boils ink to spit a droplet. With HP you replace ink cartridge and heads (which - the heads - are trivial thing). With Epson, you don't replace sophisticated head. However, you need to print a few pages a Month ad minimum if you have Epson. Otherwise quite likely you will have head clogged, and the head will be permanently dead. You have to replace the head which is about the same $$ wise as to replace the whole printer. If it is HP, when you notice some color doesn't print, you just replace that ink cartridge, and is solves it no matter whether the cartridge was empty or the head was clogged. I do not own or use much ink jet printers, but knowing that there are HP wide format inkjet professional printers, I would speculate that HP technology isn't in to any extent inferior compared to Epson, no matter what I feel knowing the difference in physical principles used.

As already explained on this list, Red Hat ("The Upstream Vendor, TUV") did not release a 32 bit version, CentOS project, which follows RHEL, did not provide a 32 bit iso too. See : https://access.redhat.com/solutions/509373 See also this forum thread : https://www.centos.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=47&t=47211 Now, all CPUs are 64 bits capable, and Red Hat is looking for the professional and server market, where there is no more interest for 32 bits (memory limited even if there is PAE, UEFI and so on...)

It's my understanding that the cartridges that come with new printers usually contain less ink or toner than the replacement cartridges do.

So that should work. I should have read my own notes! Yum usually just works ...

Lets them diminish "apparent" cost of new printer, thus making their printer look less expensive and more competitive to what competitions have. After all they do the same... Also, the majority of buyers never look into technical part, just compare products using "pricegrabber" ;-) Which is the reality that doesn't do much good for the progress.
