I dropped my Epson WF3460 inkjet in favor of an HP ColorLaserJet (MPF
M283cdw). I'm in the same low (or even lower) printed page category but
I found that powered on or powered off, any time I wanted color one of
the print heads was dried up. Fought with cleaning it for about a year
and decided the (REALLY LARGE) price for the replacement toner is
justified by the fact that I probably won't replace them more then once
every 2 years or so and they don't dry out. Or so my rationalization went.

I personally switched to laser printer because of low print volume. I was
burning through more ink cleaning print heads than printing.
Every time I turned the inkjet on it would clean heads. This would take
more ink than what ended up on the paper. Laser printer doesn't do that so
toner cartridges will last me for years.
Just a food for thought,

My HP 4630 all-in-one ink-jet printer appears to have died. See details
below. Looking for a replacement.
The last time I took count, we printed less than 10 pages/ week,
majority
color. We want the scanner, but do not use the fax. My conclusion is
that
inkjet is the proper choice. I know that there are lots of reasons to
use
laser technology, but for my low use rate I do not think a case can be
made, but feel free to argue otherwise. Suggestions desired.

I can put in a word for what not to buy. The HP Deskjet 3632 is no good.
I
only use it occasionally and almost every time it has to be reconfigured or
its driver reinstalled or some such thing. CUPS and this printer do not get
along well together at all. If there were a Fedex office nearby or other
place that allowed remote printing I would definitely prefer that. For the
small amounts of printing it would be very nice to have someone else
maintain the printer.
