Toner...
« on: January 24, 2019, 11:48:29 AM »
Yesterday evening LL was printing out some choir stuff, "that toner cartridge has lasted a long time!" facepalm:

Sure enough, she has just printed the first sheet of the day and yes, the bloody cartridge is empty!  cussing:

How the bleddy hell does that werk...? Shrugs:

Maybe Fate just doesn't like choirs

I can see its point

WHY is it so expensive????

I once bought a new printer with toner cartridges installed as it was cheaper than just buying toner cartridges  cussing: cussing: cussing: cussing:

I would suggest that you start getting the refill kits Nick but something tells me that wouldn't end well...  noooo:

You mong... ::)

New printers come with a 'starter' toner which is good for about five pages...  noooo:

* checks Amazon *

Samsung  C480FW with 'starter toner' £190
Samsung  C480FW with 'compatible toner' £350
Samsung  C480FW with 'OEM toner' £470

At this point Snoopy would inevitably post that he bought the toner from somewhere that threw in a free printer...  sad24:
