Generally I’m happy with it. I just need to keep a spare set of ink cartridges on hand. I’ll have to order some when I return from Saipan.

I’ve got an HP LaserJet 6MP in storage partly because the toner cartridge finally ran out (after I’d had it for more than four years), and because I don’t have room for both printers on my desk. I really like the LaserJet 6MP, especially because the warm-up time is very short, though I don’t know how many watts it consumes sitting idle. I’ve got an early model “Watts up? PRO” wattmeter, sine I worked on the firmware for it, so if I ever set up the 6MP again I’ll measure it.

Inkjet for color, laser for black. Whats the chance that they would both run out???
