      Probably pretty well given some companies and people will be some silly little tech sluts for the convenience of not looking up better alternatives for 10 minutes, and likely paying a bit more upfront.

      That said I hope there’s gonna be some printer piracy

      it will probably ‘end’ pretty well for them. you’d be surprised at how many home users just ‘go with it’ because they don’t know any better… and a lot of businesses only buy ‘genuine’ consumables anyway.
