On that note, I thought about going to some lawyers offices and Doctors |
| 29 |
and asking them to let me know when they upgrade their printers. Some |
| 30 |
of those does it on a schedule because it is a tax write off. What they |
| 31 |
could do, donate it to some charity and me pay the charity a little and |
| 32 |
I have a good printer plus they get a extra write off. The only |
| 33 |
downside to that, it is used plus they are most likely going to be much |
| 34 |
bigger and have more features than I need. While I don't care if it has |
| 35 |
a scanner, can fax etc, I don't need one plus I don't have a phone line |
| 36 |
to use to fax either, unless it does it over internet which I can do |
| 37 |
with email anyway. lol |

One thing about some of the larger more expensive ones, they tend to be |
| 40 |
built to last a long time and can handle large loads. Thing is, I might |
| 41 |
not use it enough to keep all the wheels spinning. It may rust to |
| 42 |
pieces from not being used enough. ROFL |

One thing I've found out about the Lexmark, cartridges that are refurbed |
| 45 |
or something ain't easy to find, yet. Heck, finding them at all isn't |
| 46 |
easy unless you go to a big chain type store. May look into another |
| 47 |
brand for this that has pretty much the same page counts. I dunno. |
| 48 |
They do last a long time tho. |
