    That’s a great perk that you can save by printing at the library. I don’t know that it’s feasible for most, or really anyone not on a school campus or living next door to a library. To the rest of us, I recommend a used laser printer for 50 dollars. There’s probably still enough toner in it to print 500-1000 more pages of text.

        I live in the equivalent of an American suburb.

        I’d have to go into town to the library. It’s too far to walk, I’d have to drive, which would mean fuel and then parking fees.

        Or I could take public transport, which would be two buses or a bus and a tram. The connections aren’t the best, so the journey into town takes at least an hour, then the same shit home.

        All for a few printed pages.

        My local grocery store is ten minutes on foot.
