By 1998 the company, then known as Omni Computer Products, had 250 employees and $25.5 million in sales. Four years later in 2002 the company had in excess of $45 million in sales. That year Chamales was interviewed by reporters about the intentions of pending Lexmark lawsuits against small printer cartridge competitors, and stated that while there is nothing wrong with making a profit, "there is something wrong if you can sell something for $300 that costs you $30 to make and you are trying to drive out someone who's willing to sell it for $100."
