I hate that everything now is a subscription service instead of buying it and do whatever you want.

    I guess I don’t print enough to see the value. A toner cartridge will last be for years and years in my printer. I don’t think I’ve ever replaced one in my home printer.

    Maybe I’m weird, but if I knew I was getting charged per-page, I’d question every single print I made. I was making a custom card for someone a while back and printed a sheet with some BS on it just to see what I need to put where, for planning. I know 6 cents is basically nothing, but if I was paying per page I would have tried to spend time reasoning it out, remembering past prints and trying to fold it up in my head. I even questioned the paper usage for what I ended up doing, and used the justification that I could use the paper for some other things afterward, it wasn’t instantly trash. I’ve always been the type that likes spending a lot 1 time rather than a little a lot of times.
