If you've got to decide between a deskwriter and a stylewriter , consider this:

The Stylewriter 's got a life expectancy of about 6000 pages, the deskwriter
about 60000 . If you've got to print more than a couple of pages a day
on average, you should go for the deskwriter.                 
I've got serious doubts about the MTBF of the Stylewriter.
