thesharklady was certainly bitter about ink prices, but why? She mentioned other choices - why get upset about it? HP marketing works great and good for them. BTW the cartridge matters lightyears more than the printer regarding print quality. The printer price is almost irrelevant. It only relates to durability/mtbf of the paper path. Its like razors vs blades.
Agree. If she doesn't use HP products, why does she care what they charge? That Excel-generated graph is terrible too.
Like others, I bought a cheap wireless Brother B&W laser for around $125 over a year ago and I'm still on the included freebie toner. Got a replacement as I thought it was getting low but the tape-over-the-hole trick has made it last months longer. I love being able to print from any laptop around the house.
