Disposable printers
The colour toners (all three) just ran out in my HP Laserjet 2550, so I went looking for cheap refills. The cheapest I could find (for all three colours) was $222.
Future Shop had a brand new (refurbished) colour laser (network too) for $200. And being network it meant I could get rid of the laptop on my desk serving only as a print server.
Although the new printer comes with only 1/3 full toner cartridges, I figure it'll take me a year to use those up anyway. Plus this printer is much quieter than the HP beast. I figure I might even save enough in electricity over a year (with no print server) to pay for refills

Color Laser? (Score:1)
I have an HP LaserJet 6P at home that I bought in 1996 because I needed to print my first resume out of college.
It's still cranking away in the wifes office. ! toner refill about5 years ago.
