Good point.  I've bought more than one good laser printer at garage sales
for $3-$10, and they usually have 1000 pages or so of toner in them.  I
haven't bought a new printer in over 20 years.  Check your local Craigslist,
or post a wanted ad there, and I bet you can find one for way less than the
$40 you're thinking of spending on ink.

Older HP lasers are very cheap to run, and almost all work very well with Linux.
