Funni Electric based in Japan purchases brands of products and based on the seller's good will continues to manufacture these products. They cheapen the products and without warning discontinue these products and the parts that make the products function. I have two Lexmark inkjet printers that I now can not get any kind of service or technical assistance or ink for these machines.
They have since purchased the Kodak printers line and are doing the same thing. Other names that they sell under are: Philips and Magnavox radios and televisions, Emerson home appliances and televisions. Many better retailers politely do not reccomend any of their products.
Many reputable companies when they discontinue products or lines offer technical support and parts to keep their products working for at least 10 years. They also send out notices to their registered owners. The discontinuence of the Lexmark printers was announced at the end of December 2016. No notice was sent out. This company does not offer users any support. Their callousness harms users and small businesses.
