      Do laser printers not extort you for money

        I have a laser printer I got over a decade ago, and I only changed the oem toner cart in the last 6mo or so.

        If that printer is extorting me for money, it’s doing a shit job of it. I’m pretty sure I’ve spent more on paper than toner for this thing.

        There is an extra step for laser printers. You initiate the extortion.

        It’s fully automated with inkjet printers

        They are way better. You can print thousands of pages on a single toner cartridge and the toner basically last forever. Unlike ink printers that dry out and clog if you don’t use it within a week.
