A laserprinter can be left on for weeks at a time and respond in a minute. An inkjet will clog if the cartridge is not used for a month.
A laserprinter uses a cartridge that costs $50 and prints 3-5000 copies. A set of inkjet cartridges for $50 might print 100 copies. A laserprinter uses paper costing $2 a ream. Some inkjet paper costs $2 a sheet.
The thing is, there are lots and lots of 14 year old laserwriter IIs out there and they still work. some of these have printed several hundred thousand copies.
I have had 7 or 8 inkjets and they all break down. They clog, they break, the company does the warranty work. And I keep them for limited use puposes, but for the office, for economy, and for reliability you really have to use a laser.
