Great deal for people who prefer to pay the high inflationary price for b&w printers and monitors. Yes stick to rotary phones and cable TV :)

I can't believe it becomes so expensive. I got it for about $70 a few years back.

Even within the last year this has been at $200. And further back this cost $100. Will we ever see those low prices again, or is this inflation sticky? Any economists here who want to chime in and help me decide to buy or not?

Laser is far superior to ink, in all but initial cost. All the ink printers I've had (work or home) have a far shorter life and cost far more per print. Laser is more cost effective in the long run. Plus most people only need monocrhome most of the time.
Further, prices are up right now. Four years ago, I was buying HP Color MFP printers for $250-$300. //@jj0915: Why would anyone still buy a monochrome laser for $250 nowadays? For just a little more you can get a color printer with ink tanks that last for years and cut down on the laser toner cartridges.

But it’s an inkjet. More expensive per copy than laser, heads/ink tubes that dry out, short life. My brother laser has been going strong since 2008!
