I own an all-in-one but even that's in work  , I only bought it for those rare occasions I actually need to send a letter or quickly copy a document. That and the fact it was dirt cheap and the aforementioned little usage would see carts last ages.How about you? |

Loads. I print pages from the service manual for my car as and when I need them. I print lots at work - it's kinda my job. Everything up to A1 size, although I did about five four metre long prints a few months back. |

When I was at school/uni, it was loads of documents. Also used to print a few photos but the quality of the print was crap. That's down to our printer. We used to have an HP 870Cxi which was awesome. Very fast and excellent quality. Unfortunately my sister managed to break it during a paper jam and the family bought a replacement without me knowing. They bought an HP 940c, which was slow and clunky. The quality IMO is poor in comparison, it doesn't seem to feed in paper perfectly straight and the alignment is all over the place. It can't print a straight vertical line! Am now looking at either an all-in-one print/scan/copier type thing or a printer that does excellent photos and text with reasonable speed, something which appears difficult to find. |

I have two Canon AIO units, one in each hemisphere. Photos aren't too bad but I mainly use them for printing and scanning docs, with the occasional copy. |

I have to printout sign then scan back in my time sheet each week  If I print a dozen pages a month that's about it I'd guess. |

I only print once in a blue moon. |

20 pages a year, maybe. The youngest daughter is still at school and prints a lot - mainly homework or applications for jobs. My GF is studying at the moment for her Meister Certificate, which also involves a fair amount. I rarely print photos, that said, I printed a 54 page book of photos professionally (through Apeture) for my GF's birthday. |

I can't quantify how many pages I print. I have three working printers, two networked and one USB. Despite being a keen photographer, I rarely print images. Most of the stuff I do print (VAT Returns, important documents, copies of invoices, etc) is done on the ancient and creaking laser printer. When it's in the mood.

We print very rarely so we have an HP Deskjet 3000:  It works much better with CUPS than with Windows, it cost £30 and that photo is pretty much real size. It sits on a shelf and because it connects wirelessly, it can stay well out of the way. |

At home, I print very rarely. I've printed maybe 10 photos in my whole life; usually they're shared electronically. I have a HP C3180 which was cheap, prints really rather good quality and is incredibly fast for an ink jet - about 50ppm for text. There's a little hook on the paper tray, and if you forget to flick it up the prints go flying across the room I have to print some stuff at work. Our office manager insists on a hard copy of every order and contract, which gets filed away in a rather dusty archive room. I also print the odd Google map when I'm going somewhere. |

I do lots of printing at work, not so much at home. Have got a networked Konica Minolta Magicolor 2450. Output quality is pretty good for a laser printer although some photos seems to have a slight magenta cast. It's still on the original toner cartridges that came with the printer when I bought it 4 or 5 years ago. I think I need to give the laser lens a bit of a wipe as some recent photos I've printed have been a bit light/dark stripy. |

I print a lot at work (or plot I guess) as plans can't really be seen on a screen. otherwise just train tickets, things like that. |

I print an absolute ton at work, various forms, pieces of guidance etc. At home I might print the odd letter here and there, otherwise nothing. |

I print invoices - but not as many as I used to. Arse. It’s coming up to Christmas and a few birthdays, so I’ll be getting the Epson R2400 into card making mode pretty soon. I also know a place where I may be able to sell prints, so it may start to get more of a workout next year. |
