I might be a real "Run You Fools"® fool if I ran to get this one, but interestingly, I really need a new printer - and have been looking at color lasers.
I think elmo3 is right, the ink jet cartridges are what makes color printing so expensive. I am going right now to get a new cartridge for one of my ink jets... might just stop by somewhere and check out color lasers again.
pdq, does the 7,000 pages at $160 per cartridge come to about $.04 per page? If so, it sure beats ink jet costs... Unless all the colors ran out at the same time. What I want is a color laser that will print in black even if one or more colors are empty, and I don't think there is such a thing...
