:-) Since some time I have no printer anymore @home since it was definitivly TOO expensive. I go with my USBstick into the Internet Cafe and can print my stuff (arround 4000 PDF pages where I print 2 normal pages per side and double sided to save paper and money) there for 0.04 Euro per side. 4000 pages would be 2000 to print which are 80 Euro. A Laser printer cardridge support arround 10000 pages and cost over 200 Euro... cheap printer do not prind recto-verso (double sided) and then every time I want to print I need the NON-FREE Acrobat since PS is not able to print two pages per side... So I was looking for a laser printer under 1000 Euro from which I can print at least 2000 pages per month (up to 8000 pages per month) and where I will have a "total cost of ownership" in 3 years of less then 0.08 Euro per double side print including the price of standard paper which I buy in packages of 5x500.
