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. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] lntl@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago (1 child) idk for most people, a library is no further than the grocery store permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] BigWheelPowerBrakeSlider@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (1 child) Without outing your location, where generally do you reside? I ask as now I'm genuinely curious if a library is no further than a grocery store for most people. I can imagine that being the case in some metropolitan areas--but I wonder about the suburban, and especially rural areas, both of which hold a heck of a lot of people, if it's true for them. Heck, there's 4 grocery stores in a 4 mile radius around me but neither of the two closest libraries would fall in that radius. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] lntl@lemmy.ml 1 point 2 years ago most people in developed countries live near a metropolitan center and very few live rurally. i live in the burbs permalink fedilink source parent [+] SpaghettiYeti@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago [deleted] permalink fedilink source parent [–] Illuminostro@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago 10 cents a page here. permalink fedilink source parent
