Why don't you simply use a laser printer? Ink jet printers are not cost efficient for printing large volumes of text documents. Laser printers are. You can get a good laser printer these days for about $150.00. A basic cartridge will print about 5000 pages and cost about $75.00. Get a laser printer. "A.
