What a load of sizzle, I'm still using a Canon pixma pro 9000 that I've had years. Plugged it in my Mac for the first time this week and had no problems at all. Then plugged it into my PC and 5 minutes later it works on that too although I'm still running Windows 7.
I only retired my HP LaserJet 2100 that I salvaged from a skip 15 years ago because I wanted a colour laser, it was a shame to dispose of it because although it squeeked badly it still printed.
After spending a week at Canon and HP about 10 years ago I know there's more to genuine inks than just a bit of plastic a chip and a drop of ink. Quality of ink and consistency are the biggest factors, plus vacuum filling and packaging to keep out minute air bubbles that cause ink lock and blockages.
Do I agree they are overpriced hell yes, but that video is complete bull5hit.
