Kevin,
Without a doubt a laser printer in the end is less costly then and
inkjet. With that said I own a HP Deskjet 895se. It is a great B&W and
Color printer. I would suggest that whatever printer you decide on get
your best price and then go to Office Max, Staples or the like. They
will give you 55% of the difference between their price and the best
price. My printer still runs $399.00 but I got it for $245. Someone had
a sale for $299.00 and I got $55.00 off of that after the 55%
difference. Just a thought.
Regards, Stuart
