Sub $100 Printer - Dell LP 1100
CNet brings tells us about the new news of the Dell LP 1100, a laser printer retailing for $99. It’s a 600 dpi, 15 ppm printer. They’re also aggressively pricing the toner cartridge at $65, that will print 2,000 copies. That’s cheap enough to drop one on everyone’s desk.
It sounds like a good deal and I’ll have to check it out. However, at one point I had 4 laser printers in my office, all with different toner cartridges. Now, every single laser printer I have uses the same cartridge. I know it’s a bit excessive. But when we reorder we always make certain we have 2 in stock and reorder when we get down to one. If we miss the reorder, we can always grab a cartridge out of one of the other printers for the day or two it takes Office Depot to deliver. It beats stocking 4 different sets of cartridges.
And thanks to Engadget for the pointer to CNet and the Dell LP 1100.
