For less than 70ukp you could get an ex-office HP laserjet with a
built-in network interface (so you both could use it) and access to
cheap supplies of toner from remanufactured cartidges.

e.g. eBay item #260293631150


Indeed. My choice.

However beware remanufactured cartridges. A friend who now has TWO
second hand Ricoh 3800's..becaue the first one ****ed up when third paty
colored toner clogged its anal orifice..and it took so long to get it
fixed..now only buys the pukka stuff..This probably is NOT an issue with
black and white, but the actual costs over the thousands of pages of The
Real Thing is often not so great
