Will it make their inks less expensive or at least same price as human blood?

Great idea except the actual City of LA is pretty small so this will likely just create regulatory headaches, spotty enforcement, and not enough impetus for big manufacturers to create alternative products at a competitive price.

When you sacrifice the convenience of your citizens, even if you do so to protect the enviroment, better to implement things slowly

I’d wager this only affect government purchasing. There are plenty of tank-based printers to choose from and the economics of them are so much better than cartridges.
It’s funny, the article calls out Epson, but Epson actually has the largest line of printers which use bottled ink instead of cartridges. Check out their ECOTank line. I don’t think the author of this article actually knows anything about the market.

Thank goodness we wouldn’t want the exorbitant costs of Whale Oil to get out of hand now would we…..regular consumers might feel a pinch at the marketplace. And the price of Hides and snake-leather for common house-hold use really has been over the top , it’s a wonder average consumers can still use it.
And the less said about the ridiculous price of floppy disks I’m so glad they are thinking of consumers again.

Can you also ban ink jet printers that won’t print black if they run out of cyan?
