[kwlug-disc] Laser Multifunction with feeder under Linux?

[John Van Ostrand]

Yield depends on how much you use the printer. In my house it's used infrequently enough that ink dries out before the cartridge's full yield can be realized. I haven't tried laser, but I figure it could lay idle for longer without damage to the toner cartridge.
