If you have been using a Laser Printer, you will be shocked at the cost of ink. Check that out, you may well be better off buying those new toner cartridges for hundreds of dollars up front. My Epson R200 costs a hundred bucks to buy new Epson ink carts for (locally). You say, "But the toners each cost more than that". To which I reply, "Yes but the toners are good for hundreds or thousands of pages, the ink carts are good for about 20-30 photos".
That said I use a B&W laser for all text printing, and the Epson only for photos and CD's. -graywolf Thibouille wrote: > My Epson colour laser being at the end of its life (toner are low, > it'd cost more than the printer price to buy new ones) I will soon > need to replace it. > > I still do not know if I will go colour laser or inkjet but price of > the laser will probably drive toward inkjet. > Idealy, I'd like an inkjet which could print well my pictures, serves > as well as general printer (I don't want to change cart everytime and > lose on ink because of it) and be a network printer as well. > > I found the HP 6940/6980 (the 6980 aslso as recto/verso and wifi) to > be the kind of thing I want.
