Obviously, HP Thinks We Are Stupid
One of the best investments that I made about 7 years ago was to buy a black and white laser printer for home:<p><a href="http://www.okidata.com/mkt/downloads/B4250_B4350Series.pdf" rel="nofollow">http://www.okidata.com/mkt/downloads/B4250_B4350Series.pdf</a><p>I paid about €250 for it (which then was < $300) and not only does it print higher quality and faster, after printing <i>thousands</i> of pages (I'd guesstimate 5000 pages), it still hasn't run out of its initial toner cartridge, and the prices I've seen for when it does are about €25.<p>With printers, as with much in the electronics world, it makes sense to buy the lowest end professional device rather than futzing around with consumer-grade stuff.
