I need a 4-in-1 printer and have had it with replacing ink jet cartridges every 50 pages (or whatever the low number is) so am thinking of getting a laser 4-in-1 if it's affordable. Was in Staples recently and noticed they have 4-in-1 inkjets which claim (and the salesperson did as well) get far more pages per cartridge, and are actually cheaper per page (50% cheaper as I recall the statement). Some of the models were on sale, at least that week. I don't think I need color, at least not for current needs. So my questions are: 1) any suggestions for a model of a reasonably priced (under $200?) laser 4-in-1, and where to get one? Is this something to buy online?
2) Anyone with experience with these supposedly improved, higher capacity inkjet cartridges, and if so, whether this might be worth it over a laser printer, all costs considered? 3) Is is it a good idea, if one can afford it, to get a color laser printer, in case one has need for this in the future (maybe brochures, flyers?) 4) Is the print quality on a laser noticeably better to today's inkjets? Please don't suggest a Dell inkjet; I've had so much frustration with the one I have now! As always, I appreciate people with knowledge and experience on this list taking the time to answer such questions!
