As a history nod: the late Carson Kan of HP Labs was
the one who suggested
that the inkhead be a disposable & user replaceable item ... at the time,
the inkjet project was stuck and Barney Oliver sent him to it as his
trouble shooter.? (It was stuck because the non-replaceable printhead kept
getting ink clogs.)
(As related to me by Carson, about 2005.)
