My contract ends in less than a year. this has been a fantastic deal. I have to print 1600 pages a month, no minimums on color. However, I think they have changed the policy, and require you to print a minimum on the color now. It is a great printer. I actually have ended up buying a lot of color since a friend saw the quality of the printing and now uses it to print his monthly newsletters. If the terms are still the same from when i got it, do it if you can.
