That's the opposite of how it should be. Corporations are the ones that are actually going to want the ink subscription. Corporations are happy to blow money on anything other than wages.
Consumers are the ones that need to save every penny they can. The consumer grade printers should be the ones getting the "crappy" customer service with no firmware updates. The commercial version should be the one shoving ink down their throats.
