Hey,

Anyone have any thoughts on the most cost effective printers out there? I don't want to feel violated every time I have to buy a new cartridge.

Thanks...

For B&W printing, buy a laser printer that can be refilled easily and cheaply ...

What are some models that students (aka low on money) should be looking at for B&W printing?

Theres a thread on Hot Deals for cheap laser printer 49.99 @ Zellers, forgot which brand.

But for cheap printers, get something like Samsung, Brother, or HP. They occasionally go on sale for 50-60ish and most of them are refillable. As models go, i own a Samsung ML-2510 i got for 50@ staples, other models may include Brother HL-2140.

Hard to beat a 50 dollar printer that costs 10 dollars in toner to print 3000 pages. And toners dont dry out like inkjets.
