Pondering the Imponderable -- 7:10 pm CST, Update by A.T. Hun

Much to my surprise, the starter toner cartridge on my printer is almost dead. The instructions say that it should be good for 1,000 pages at 5% coverage, but the page count hasn't even reached 500 yet. Well, I found out that 5% coverage is equal to double-spaced text with a 12 point font. Most, if not all, of the documents I print have considerably more text than that. At least I know that it's still better than 1/2 as cheap per page as my old ink jet. For now, I'm giving it a couple shakes every page or two and having it print dark to get every last bit of toner out. Hopefully, the full cartridge (3,000 pages) will last me a year and a half or so.
