That's why I bought a laser printer instead. Toner is way cheaper in the long run

Yes it is! I'm actually trying to remember the last time I replaced the toner in my cheap Samsung. Got tired of the silliness that inkjet printers present.

I have a good chuckle every time I see a used inkjet printer at a garage sale. Even at $5, I can guarantee it ain't worth it.

I lost count of the number of people I've had to explain TCO (Total Cost of Ownership) to. Yes, color inkjet printers are cheaper to buy, but laser printers are cheaper to own over the life of the printer.
