Not much of a discount by itself, but if you find a good price on something you were going to buy anyway, well, every little bit helps.The nice thing about this is that the discount is on everything.

If you print anything and don't have a laser printer, consider this. The stock toner does 1,000 pages, then you can buy a generic toner cartridge which does a whole bunch more for about $15. Toner doesn't dry out, and the laser printer should be a nicer quality print than an ink jet.

I wish I could buy this. Anything I print in black and white I'd send to this printer and save money on ink cartridges while getting a better quality printout in much less time. Shit, if I didn't buy off brand ink for my printer, it would cost me that much just to buy more inkjet carts.

I use my laser printer all the time. It only had a wired connection so connected it to my router so now I can print wireless to it from all of my devices since it is on the network..

It is an older one I got from work. It was jamming when printing a lo of pages to it. Funny thing is it has not jammed on me. i i

I got one spare toner for it that we had left over at work. They are not cheap though. I have yet to buy one and doubt I will when I run out. i i
Generic stuff is hard to get depending. Refilling with powered toner though, forget it. extremely messy and I would not want to breath that shit in.If you can do it at all easily.

I have not even setup up Epson Ink jet on any of my laptops. Have not used them for awhile, I am sure all the ink is dried up.

That does seem like a good price etc.. *IF* you really can get cheap toner, sounds too good. i I

$299 for an EVGA b-stock 1070ti. One year warranty. This is the second best price I've seen, and the first best was an insanely good deal that sold out quickly. This one's also a very good deal. I'd buy it to complete my new build if I had the money.

SanDisk 1TB Ultra 3D NAND SATA III SSD

GREAT price. I know it is not the 960 Pro but if it is decent at all, $144 for a 1TB SSD card is not bad. The 2TB is $309.
My boss pointed it out, he is going to research them and if they are any good at all we may get a few for work.

Sad.. in the old days I probably could have got one to "test." i i
Not those days anymore.

Nice find. Not sure I've seen a better price on a decent quality one gig SSD.

I bought a couple of those $40 laser printers. Work great. I used the $5 refill kit from Amazon, took a whole 5 mins and a piece of scotch tape ;p Wireless and network or USB, one was an epson and the other a samsung 2525. I'm spoiled, I'll never ever buy inkjets again. I can live with b/w.

Ink jets CERTAINLY are useful though. Can't print photos on a laser printer, even a good one.
Okay you can but the quality is average. Just not as good usually as an Ink jet... I say usually as I know there are ones that can print really nice on one.

No Ink jets can be a pain but I would always want one around. If you use the large tanks of ink with them they are not bad cost wise either. They make ink tanks for all kinds of Ink jet printers. You can save a ton on ink costs.

But for everyday B&W jobs, lasers are the way to go.

We have a large format Ink jet printer at work. Can print posters. It is awesome and actually not THAT expensive considering.

Maggie wants a color laser printer, said she had one at work before she retired that printed pictures on plain paper better than inkjet on photo paper.

Sorry but that would be a no. Talking paper here. No matter what printer you use plain paper simply will NOT, in any way shape or form, print a photo better than on photo paper.

Sorry it just won't. Plain paper just is not meant for that, that is why different paper exists. Plain paper soaks up the ink making photos look dull in comparison. You cannot simply bypass that somehow with a different printer unless it somehow coats the paper as it goes or something. I never heard of a printer doing that. Would costs more than just using glossy paper in the first place.

In general in my experiences laser printers, unless it was extremely high end, expensive and one I am not familiar with, they by and large are not worth it for photos. I am talking something you would call a "photo" not just pictures printed. Don't get me wrong, color lasers do a decent job at photos for everyday flyers and such, we do it all the time at work. They are just not "photo quality. " They can look better printing on glossy paper though.

Toner costs a LOT for color laserjets. Even that large Ink jet we have the ink is expensive.

Professionals use Ink jets for most high end work or special printers that are commercial grade laser/ink jet/other so those don't count in this conversation. i i

Lets face it they all make the most on the consumables so the printers are not usually too much. Again unless it is high end. No matter what price range the consumables costs a lot unless you get around it.

[Lurchmonster]

Well, this was a top secret company with lots of high end research and production, so it might have been a Hell of a laser... I do know the prints she brought home looked as good as inkjet on photo paper, but I never saw the "better than", just what she kept telling me.

It didn't print in glossy though, at least not any of the stuff she brought home. Matte on plain paper.

Good deal but I have the 8 quart version. 6 quarts would be too small unless you make stuff that you don't care about leftovers etc... I like the extra room.

But either way these are GREAT units! Love mine.
