Scammish: Printers using cyan when printing black and white, and B200 error

I remembered watching a TouYube video on this while watching videos on Rights to Repair. I had a very, very large print job so I took note of the Cyan level. After printing about 100 pages, the cyan color became low. After another 100 pages and the cyan color was empty. The printer showed an error that cyan is out and stopped printing. Fortunately, I was able to just confirm the error and the printer will continue printing.

I searched online for some references, there was one that claimed the printers use cyan to provide a better black print. If it is, it is not noticeable to the human eye. My next 200 pages look to be the same quality as the first 200 pages.

I have options for only black and white enabled because there are 3 random mono-chrome non-black pages. Those pages were grey colored. So, I do not understand why cyan would have been needed for that either.

I think this is a scam. Not only did it use cyan, but it used half the cartridge (checked visually with the printer application tool and on the printer itself). I currently used a Canon MX922. I also bought an HP Envy Pro 6400 series which only printed maybe 100 pages before running out of ink before I even started this print job.

On side note

I also ran into a B200 error. This video helped me bypass the error.

Are Options Causing Newer Generations to be Lonelier?

 The other day I was speaking with a complete stranger around my age. We had a great chat reminiscing the past: games we've played, foods we ate, movies we watched, sports, even ways we've circumvented collect-calls.

I was trying to explain this to my sister-in-law who is many, many years younger than me. Her glazed look and imaginary question marks all over her face. I then realized that the younger generations have so little in common with each other due to all the options available today.

We only had one or two consoles. If you didn't one one, a friend had the other. Now, not only are there more consoles, brands have multiple systems like handhelds. Not only that but most devices are now capable of multiple functions like smart phones. I found it difficult to even describe a Tiger hand-held game that plays only one game.

This got me thinking if this makes it harder for younger generations to find something in common. Does this make them more isolated? Where we try to diversify, we are indirectly making it difficult for new generations to relate to each other?

Buggish: AWS (3.1.3.1894 for Windows) latest patch broke tab hold

 I noticed in the patch notes that the latest version (3.1.3.1894) fixed a double-shift, but it seems this version broke hold tab key. Before this patch, I was able to hold the tab key down. I use this in excel where I want to move to the right (directional) column or when I ALT-TAB to another window. I also use SHIFT-TAB to go to the left column.

I have not tried to refresh my connection as I just connected to this session and need to start working on my next task.
