Try it in the UK. Buying the printer can be cheaper than replacing the
ink so we finish up scrapping brand new unused printers to save doing
the recharge bit and wasting the ink that fills the tubes. I bought a
Lexmark laser printer for =A317 (about $20 dollars at the present rate
and even less at the time of purchase)  with a starter ink cartridge
which is about half the normal size and a new full cartridge will cost
me =A345. Lisa, did you notice what Sarah said re my suggestion?
