  A side note, I have stopped following this group (comp.laser...) because on
several occasions after answering a question, I was swamped with automated
email coming from distribution mailers in europe.  I even believe my site
(may) have stopped carrying it for this same reason by now.

  Just a brief note of additional info, I too started filling carts years ago.
I used every method known to mankind.   There are and can be some serious
health consequences associated to doing it.  It is generally somewhat messy,
and not well suited to northern climate variations (winter, {wet}spring & fall)
And generally a pain in the xss.  As a corporate entity, now that several
companies exist that perform this service, I (generally) no longer involve
myself.  As a individual, I probably would continue myself IF AND WHEN I get
a laser.  However, in my case, I currently have the opportunity to purchase
carts myself taking advantage of huge volume pricing and probably wouldn't...
   While not a add, woody has been a great source in the past, and I would
recommend his advice for the hard core interested.  There also was a great
article in the shopper a long time ago (via don L.), maybe reprints are avail.
there also are publications on the subject and mags like the recharger woody 
mentions.

   In light of my earlier comments, I have about 10 sealed bottles of
minolta ep-350 toner.  They are for sale, $ 5 each.  If you take the whole
lot, I'll ship free you pay $5 ea plus COD.  Individual bottles, $5 + sh + cod.
UPS brown service either case.  Send email to me at the followup address.
