I did this in 2001 myself. For the rare occasions when I really need color, I
can get stuff printed by online print-your-own-photo places, even if it isn't
a photograph. I buy one thing of toner about every other year. Nothing ever
dries up. It holds a lot of paper, the paper doesn't get dusty if I go a few
days without printing anything.
I love my laser, and I can live with monochrome in exchange for the
hassle-free service. So far it's working out that it's cheaper to buy a new,
faster, better printer when the drum unit in the first one needs replacing.
The drums *are* expensive, but for another $100 I can get a printer with
twice the PPM and double the resolution in 3-4 years, and I can usually sell
the old printer for close to $100, so it's about even.
