The best bit is it doesn't have toner reset chips


The Lexmark CS317dn is chipped, but only costs £58+VAT so assuming you
get the stated 750 colour pages plus maybe an additional 500 black-only
pages out of the starter toners, it's cheaper to buy a new printer, than
fork out £266+VAT for a set of full-size toners that would yield 2300
colour pages plus 3000 black-only pages

I know you can't simply add the black pages and colour pages, but even
if you assume you only get 500 black pages on top of the colour ones, it
still works out 30% cheaper to junk the printer than buy refills ...
madness.
