I purchased a high-volume, small business printer a month ago. The ink (and paper) does cost money, but I'm sure I could do 500 for $450. Ie, lower than Jim's motion.

The printer is owned by a small business, which I'm only a partial owner of. So that company, would have to invoice for cash, and charge GST.

This printer I have, outputs amazing quality. I also know the difference between a 'high-quality' print job on matte or glossy paper. I could do a proof for, say Jim's approval, before I ran the 300 off. --[[User:JNMcLarty|JNMcLarty]] 11:08, 24 February 2012 (EST)

Jim, I noticed you changed the 300 to 500. Only reason I quoted what I did, for 300, was because I know that their cost includes some component of minimum wage labour. I can basically, save the party from paying that - by volunteering my time. So, I can beat it by at least $10.25 x 6. After I do the first run, the cost could prove lower (say, if I only used 15% of the ink in the cartridges). But, if it costs me two cartridges of ink, well, I'd be doing it at a loss. This would not be right, for the other shareholders and bond holders. I updated the language above --[[User:JNMcLarty|JNMcLarty]] 10:42, 25 February 2012 (EST)

=== Quantity ===

How long will 500 last? Ironically, we could lower our cost, and probably do a more effective job, if we reduced the word/page count.

As you've [[Prep:Campaign Theme|seen in the planning stages]], I do have plans for completing a far more brief version of our platform. It's one of the first things in the schedule for the next election campaign. --[[User:JNMcLarty|JNMcLarty]] 12:09, 25 February 2012 (EST)
