Call it computing on a budget. I use mine for mailmerged letters on
letterhead. I load up both sheet feeders, fire it up when I get ready
to leave, and let the things chug on all night long. Slow, but I don't
care. No graphics, but I don't need them.

Besides, I bought four of these printers for what you spend on ONE
toner cart for a laser!! :-)
