Consumables for Digital Envelope Press

[Happyprinter]

I have heard alot of good about this new digital press. My question is what are the costs of the consumables for the press. What are the expected run lengths for a container of toner, or for the drum and can it be replaced by the consumer. How about the belts etc.
Thanks

I have the PSI envelope printer, basically equivalent to the Xante (same Okidata 9650 engine). In consideration of all consumables, you are looking at $30.00 to $35.00 per M for corner copy. If you run large areas of toner, this number can easily jump to $50. - 60. per M, or more.

Remember, both these companies lock you into their branded toner via an RFID chip at a 20% premium over street prices. Drums, belts, and fusers, however, may be purchased from any Okidata supplier.
