  Printing is cheaper if you use low-definition laser printer with cheap bargain toners that can print roughly 5000 pages.
  
  If it's ink cartridge then don't think about it.

  i saw something like free refilling of black ink
  
  pay $5 for service , i went and they want me
  
  to leave the cartridge there, cos the girl
  
  dont know how to refill , waiting for another girl
  
  to do it, i hope it is not a scam
  
  wonder if they really give me a full refill?
