My wife and I have a Samsung ML-2510 laser printer at home. It’s a nice little printer–definitely not high volume, but for the limited printing we do at home, it’s been great.
Well, recently, the toner has started to fade. No big deal, it just needs a new cartridge. So I go on-line to order a new cartridge, and I discover this deal to purchase a new printer for $59.99. How much for a new toner? $77.
Reminds me of my slightly too-wealthy, slightly senile grandmother, who one day was told by her mechanic that she needed to have her tires replaced. After politely declining, she drove across the street and bought a Caddy.
Of course, the tires wouldn’t have been more than the car itself, not by a long shot, so that makes it all the more crazy. Yours is definitely the wiser of the two choices.
