Jeff, Are you obsessed with ink jet? Cheap initial, high operating. I switched to color laser, now that they are down around $500, and am thrilled with it. There are several good ones out there. I chose the OKI (technically a LED rather than a laser) for the speed and cost. And was delighted with the quality (go for BEST rather than NORMAL on photos), especially on plain paper.
Then what I did was keep my old ink jet, as the laser printer does not do everything, such as tee shirt transfers (last time I did any of those was in 2000). For that matter, I used to print a lot more than I do now. Toner keeps. Ink carts do not, once they have been opened. Nothing like needing the printer a few months after installing new cartridges, and finding they are dried up. You obviously know how much that costs.
