Here's my thoughts so far:
-Lasers are getting pretty darn cheap!
Even the not-so-cheap ones are cheaper to just replace than buy new
toner. We have an HP color laser at work for which 4 toner cartridges
and an imaging drum costs about $600. A new printer of the same model
costs about $500 and is dropping. So when the first toner cartridge gets
down to about 15% remaining, I'm just going to order a new printer and
toss this one in the trash.
I think you'll find the expected life of the drum and toner cartridges
supplied is lower than the after-market ones. Certainly is for the
HP2550, where the supplied drum has a nominal life of 8,000 pages,
replacement one 20,000. Inkjets also sell on the same basis.
