Supreme Court to Lexmark: when you sell something, the buyer then owns it

I don’t think this decision mandated that all cartridges have to be refillable and that non-refillable ones are not illegal. It’s saying that we now have the choice to refill.

I’d suggest that most people probably don’t print all that much and rarely change their ink on their printers as a result. I’d guess most people are going to go with the cheaper option, because of that.
