So, just to clarify, your protest is that if we had charged more
money for printouts, there would be more money in the kitty to
purchase a new one?

We're only asking for 1/2 in donations. That's common practice in
recent times, and I don't feel it's unreasonable.

Where I feel bad is when next week we will ask for more donations
for a GigE switch, and then after that a new machine. That is,
asking the same people to dig into their pockets over and over
again. Hmm :(
