low end laser printer?

[Bill Day]

I picked up a Lexmark E312 Optra for about $300.  The toner cartirdige I
have does approx 5000 pages for  a chunk of change($140)..  My folks have a
HP 6L with cartridges around $65 or so, they replace three before I replace
1.  They might be lucky if they get 1000-1200 off a cartridge.
