    I haven't purchased ink in so long I forgot the price. I just googled it. Looks like it could range depending on the brand name and the printer you're getting the ink for could be 15$ could be 60$ depending on full sets or singles but they're so small and run out so quick. You'd be spending 60$ on like three cartridges for what a laser printer could do for less than half of that. And that would be just your black cartridge. So if all of them ran out that's about 80$ a set.
