We didn't have a working printer for a few years. We spent more having stuff printed than we do printing ourselves. It's a laser printer. So, the on-going cost for us is pretty minimal. Yes, we can (and do) buy coloring books, but if the kids want to color something specific (e.g., Lego people), we can print them and the kids can color right then and there. No driving to the store, no waiting for it to be delivered. Could I get by without one, absolutely, but it is way more convenient to have one for us, and less expensive. Printing services local and online are fairly expensive these days, and the local shop is a pain to get to. They're right near the university and their parking is shit.
