What is the expected cost per copy on an HP LaserJet 5000?
The HP stated cost for a “industry standard” page is $0.021 You can lower this by using econo mode, and cut any figure in half by using a remanufactured toner cartridge. The lowest cost per page for most users wanting 11×17 laser quality is to buy a refurbished HP LaserJet 4v printer. The specs are nearly identical, and since you can buy a guaranteed 4v about half the cost, unless you’re printing a massive amount of prints, the capital savings make this the best deal.
