Is It Worth Keeping An Old Laser Printer?
I don’t print much these days and if I want something in colour, I have an expensive HP Laser I could connect to my network.
For general printing I’ve used an HP 3390 mono laser printer, that has worked well in the past few years, but it died on Monday. I obviously won’t fix it and it’ll go in a skip.
Checking prices for a new mono printer, that I can have in my living room, I found a wi-fi driven HP for £99.99 in Currys. So in other words, I bought one printer for the price of two 3390 catridges. Admittedly the new printer doesn’t copy, but the big colour one does that!
Soon they’ll give you a new printer for just walking in the shop and smiling nicely! Well not quite! But you get my drift.
I am having a similar problem . . . and came to the same conclusion . . .
Now printers are cheaper than new cartridges . . .
