Eric Blair Posted December 29, 2019 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2019 40 minutes ago, Lily H said: Why do you want to know? OK, that''s a legitimate question. I'm curious if people use/need a print in color feature with all the expenses, if they considered it might be a lot less expensive to simply go to a stationary store and have the color page/photo printer. As I said, simply curious, so I thought I would ask. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johanson Posted December 29, 2019 Report Share Posted December 29, 2019 Gave my color printer away and get along very well with my black and white laser printer. Well actually, it is one color, black which I use with white paper. When I need a color copy, I drop by a store offering that service. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jreboll Posted December 29, 2019 Report Share Posted December 29, 2019 I used to want to have the latest and greatest, now I just go to the print shop. Much, much cheaper. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vetteforron Posted December 29, 2019 Report Share Posted December 29, 2019 I have both color and laser black only. Things I print in color, pics, example my Nursing certificate for Wall and keep my original in safe place. My guests at my facility like color for their documents. Black only laser documents. Many copies if each too many to count. Buying original ink OMG! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComputerGuy Posted December 29, 2019 Report Share Posted December 29, 2019 I dropped colour years ago, even though I was a semi-pro photographer. Much cheaper to get them printed locally. I use a laser printer. In my experience, most of the colour people use is drained by their emails: they print a message, and the colourful Yahoo or HotMail header prints out, while the message is almost always just a black text message. And they fret constantly over getting cartridges and refills. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floradude Posted December 29, 2019 Report Share Posted December 29, 2019 I print both black and white and color. I have never counted my usage but I used my printer almost daily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cstone Posted December 29, 2019 Report Share Posted December 29, 2019 I have both color/b&W. I use B/W more frequently, but print things for my service organization, occasional photos and charted needlepoint and x stitch designs. I can afford the ink. The wells are huge and they last quite a long time. I pay attention to what I print. I would have to walk to a papeleria to have the copies made, so having my printing capabilities here at home is more convenient. I like my instant gratification !

More Liana Posted December 29, 2019 Report Share Posted December 29, 2019 I have a multi-function printer, color and B/W. I use the scan function quite frequently, rarely print anything at all. Last week I printed 40 pages of handout materials for a tour client. That's probably the first time in 3 months that I've printed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chapalence Posted December 29, 2019 Report Share Posted December 29, 2019 For color copies I get them made at Trinidad across from the Coca-Cola plant in SAT. Cheaper and better copies for the few I need anymore. It seems like my print head dries out between uses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use a Brother LASER. All-in-One and it's a real work horse. Black only. I do a maybe 100+ pages per month, and not that 5% coverage B.S. I often refill my cartridges, sort of a mess, or I buy non-OEM on Mercado Libra. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get the laser cartridges cheap from Amazon and bring back on trips up north. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we were doing business online and had to print out dozens of invoices daily, it was as you stated, a work horse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
