I second the laser vote. Went with a Brother color laser last year.
Photos are not as nice but with some tweaking not terrible.
consumables are high but WTF. They don't dry out I have two ink jets
on the system, one for cd printing and one for photos. I try to run
them every once in a while to keep the jets clear.
Prior to that was always HP inkjets that lasted usually 3 years
before replacement.

I really like my Brother 5370DW laser printer. Yes BW only. I
started with a Brother 2070N and upgraded.
I know the supplies are a rip, but they have to make money somehow!
All in all, I'd buy another Brother in a
heartbeat. I believe JRS uses the color modelto my BW and he shares
good things about his. I gave up on
inkjets years ago.

My Epson Workforce printer is giving up the ghost. I'm pissed
about the fact that if one single ink cartridge (it has four, one
black and 3 color) runs empty, then this printer won't print at
all. Also, if you clean the heads, it somehow uses ink. I ran
though nearly an entire set of cartridges without printing a single
word or pattern, just by cleaning the heads.
Anyone got a decent printer recommendation? Frankly, it seems like
printers have gone the way of the dodoit seems you get ripped
on ink and get shoddy hardware to nearly nothing. I don't print a
lot, though, so my needs are not great, but I do need to
print. I'm working on a report right now and having a printed copy
would be nice, but I can't even get a decent printed copy.
Thanks.
