The Great Laser Printer Toner Scam

I love my Xerox Phaser 6139N laser printer, it is a great printer and cost under £200 but one small problem is that a new set of 4 toners costs £272.00 !!!

Earlier today my Xerox Phaser 6139N said that it had run out of magenta toner so naturally I put in new cartridge. I was just about to throw the old one away but I decided that the bright pink powder warranted a closer inspection so I emptied out the remaining toner onto the table and to be honest I think it was good for a fair few extra pages.

This is how much toner was left from an EMPTY toner cartridge.

I then decided to do some more detective work and I actually weighed the empty toner cartridge and compared the weight with a full toner cartridge.

Full toner cartridge weighs 87 grams.

Empty toner cartridge weighs 72 grams.

Each toner cartridge contains 15 grams of toner.

The cost of toner is £4.60 per gram.

For comparison the cost of gold at todays price is £30.54 per gram.

Take screenshots of your Android phone (without root)

You don't have to root your Android phone to take screenshots.

Install Android SDK http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html

Install USB Sync on your PC (The software that came with your phone).

Use USB to connect your phone to your PC and turn on Sync.

Go to Settings, Applications, Development and turn on USB debugging.

From the Android SDK run Dalvik Debug Monitor (DDM) by double clicking "C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk\tools\ddms.bat"

DDM will “find” your phone.

In DDM click Device, Screen capture…

You can now save your screenshot to your PC.

These examples use my HTC Desire HD.

I'm actually testing if it's possible to upload pictures which can then be viewed in a web forum.
