Cheap Fix

My laser printer just stopped working with no warning, saying replace the toner waste container.
A quick check on line showed that they seemed to be out of stock everywhere, with prices around £20 including P&P. Some were available from Germany, but with higher carriage.
So, I removed it from the printer, took it out to the wheelie bin, held it upside down and out came lots of toner!. - into a plastic bag.
After cleaning up the outside to remove toner dust, I refitted it, and hey presto, the printer was working again.
A quicker fix, and a saving of £20.
