Even better, if you scour your local thrift stores you can occasionally find them for as little as $10 and all they typically need is a cleanup and a new toner cartridge.
I bought mine for $7 4 years ago and it's still working on the toner cartridge that was in the printer when I bought it.
Admittedly, I only print about 40 or 50 pages a year but that's a hell of a deal.
I don't know. If I were young and single and fresh out of college with a six figure job offer at a San Francisco company, I would consider this, at least until I got my footing.
Sure, it might suck, but I could put up with a lot of suck in order to be able to pocket that much spare cash.
