I have gone down the laser printer route -- good quality used HP
printers are available on eBay and others. The older HP Laser printers
are very reliable.

Then, buy remanufactured cartridges and they become cheap to run. The
remanufactured cartridges are available for less than half the cost of
buying a new cartridge on the high street.  You don't need to pay $130
-- maybe only $50-$60.
