<div>Depending on the volume, it might be cheaper to make fewer
prints at home and have Kinkos do the duplication/volume work.
Depending on how much printing, keep an eye on the PPM (pages
per minute) count.</div>
<div><br class="">
</div>
<div>Also, don’t be shocked when replacement toner cartridges
cost nearly as much as the printer itself. I have an HP color
laser, which ran around $600 for the printer. A full set of 4
replacement cartridges runs right around $600.</div>

<div>HP might make worthless junk in other areas, but their
printers are solid and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend an HP
printer.</div>

<div>You don’t necessarily need to spend big extra money for a
printer that comes with wireless. There are plenty of
products that turn your USB-only or ethernet-only printer into
wireless. Do some cost comparison.</div>

<div>No USB? Then how is it connected to your computer?
Parallel?</div>

Yes, parallel. It's Its connected to my old ASUS/AMD Athlon tower I
built in about 2002. Presently I have to copy from my laptop to USB
stick to the old tower to print from the laptop. I will look for
something like that device you showed me below. <br>

<div>The problem I think would be power. USB can supply power
to a wireless chipset, but parallel cannot (maybe?).</div>

<div>Try something like this perhaps? <a moz-do-not-send="true"
