Personally, I've been fine without having a printer at all for like the last decade. In the rare event that I need to print something, I'll just go to Staples or something to get it done there. I'd be surprised if I've spent more than $20 total on printing.

Though with my daughter getting older, it might be only a matter of time before it becomes more cost effective and convenient to have my own. Which will not be an HP even if they paid me to take one.
