I can already see a difference in how long the ink lasts--plus I'm not dumping any more cartridges in landfill! Our printer got set up last week, so my students and I are now enjoying full color images and last minute extra copies thanks to your generosity.\r\n\r\nColor printing is especially helpful for my newcomer student. She is still learning a lot of English vocabulary and visuals support her in this process. Having a color printer allows me to show her full, detailed pictures instead of grainy black and gray images. This not only gives her a clearer understanding of the word, but is also more engaging. Similarly, being able to print in color sets my students up for success in our reading intervention program.
