I have set the toner level (?) setting on my NeXT Printer down to the minimum
with little loss in printing quality.  It is most noticeable on large black
areas.  When I want better quality, I just pop the cover and crank it up to a
mid-range setting until I finish printing.  Don't know how much this might
lengthen cartridge life, but it must help somewhat.
