You're all talking about ink jet printers, I gather. I haven't used one of those for years. I compared the laser dry toner cartridge size (projected number of pages printed) and the cost and settled on HP. I've done the math a couple of times since then and they always come out on top. HP branded cartridges are pricey, but you can find knockoff brands for about 1/4 of the price. I would never go back to the racket of inkjet printers. Those printer companies aren't in the business of selling printers, they are in the business of selling ink. That's why ink jet printers are so inexpensive.
