For a true display of wealth, dab printer ink behind your ears instead of Chanel No. 5

That's really worth considering if any potential buyers are wonder. Paper is cheap, but if you use both sides, you can almost halve your paper usage costs. Ok, it's only about 0.3p per page, but that's still a significant portion of the per page cost of laser printing. It's less of an issue with inkjets where it can be 15p per page on pay as you go plans.

Also, both ink and laser printer cartridges are almost always quoted with a "number of pages" they claim to print. This is usually calculated on 5% coverage, which is probably about a paragraph of text per page, so not really realistic in the real world.
