Commercial printers are 10k??? I always figured they were like maybe 2k. I should have picked up that full sized copier I saw at goodwill for $25

And that's on the low end. I worked at print place a while back and our color machine was worth like 30k. We leased all of our equipment and had a maintenance deal tho because they're also expensive AF to run. Toner bottles got swapped out every couple weeks and those alone were a couple hundred.
