T&T: On-board Printer issues

[Frank Timpano]

Purchase a laser printer, they are so cheap now, under $200, and even a 
color laser printer is only $400-$500. Print one page a year if you like, 
no more clogged ink cartridges. Some laser printers are no larger than an 
ink jet if size is a concern.
