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:http://www.okidata.com/mkt/downloads/B4250_B4350Series.pdfI paid about €250 for it (which then was thousands 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.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.
