Hi Dennis,
Where are you getting your toner refills from?
I've got an Optra E that I got for $5 form a surplus sales and have been looking for decent refills.

Thanks,

Kevin

Hi,

Why buy a new printer? I bought a used Lexmark Optra E+ on eBay for
$40 (including shipping). Toner cartridge refills are only $10
(including shipping). I posted results from a recent board in my
photo album (dl5012).

Regards,
Dennis
