  This is a common but fallacious argument against laser printers.  The
last time I bought a cartridge for my main printer, sure it was well
over $100.00...but I get about 25,000 pages out of a cartridge.  Do the
math. ;)

  (Not you, Herb, but others here who may read what you typed and nod,
"Oh yes, I'm sticking with my ink jet, laser printer toner cartridges
are EXPENSIVE!")

  Ink jet printers have been little more than a scam for many years now.
 It's along the same lines as the lottery being a tax on people who are
bad at math.  The only real exceptions are the large-format ones, for
which no better solution currently exists.
