<p>I would rather not buy a printer if the campus has a decent amount of them, but I don't want to wait in super long lines or be crunched for time. Is it worth it to buy a personal printer?</p>
<p>FWIW – an inexpensive printer is $50 +/-. add an extra $50 for extra ink cartridges and paper.</p>
<p>If once in your college career, you finish a paper at 3am and don’t want to trudge to the nearest printing center (or because of the late hour are concerned about personal safety), it will be worth it.</p>
<p>My s initially didnt feel a printer was necessary. He changed his mind. Its way too convenient to have.</p>
<p>Thank you!</p>
