LOL! Just like inkjet printers! It was $40.00 cheaper for me to buy a new
printer VS new cartridges for the old one.

Yes, but were the cartridges in the new printer fully loaded with ink?
Often they only have about half the ink as a replacement cartridge.


Ink works out to something like $500 per gallon in cartridges.

I bought a color laser last time (A $400 Samsung CLP-600, on sale for
$200!) Toner cartridges would cost about $320, but toner refills are
available for a mere (Feh!) $165 from the GWN, your country. I much
prefer laser toner to ink.

P.S: I received a free printer once. After bringing it home, I
realized that she refilled it herself. There was ink all over my truck
floor mat and it took about six months to finally get it up. Luckily,
it was the old Ford. The new Tundra has carpeting. I woulda beed
really ****ed at that. If you've never had an ink spill, trust me.
You don't want to experience one. The damned thing kept leaking on my
shop floor for another six months before someone finally took it off
my hands. Uckfay Inkjetyays.
