I don't have a laser simply because I haven't seen an "all in one" full color laser that's as compact as the Epson inkjet I'm using. I can't speak to the color quality of lasers really vs inkjet, but I've printed a bunch of photos that come out "good enough" on photo paper with my printer. Mind, if we need any volume, we ship 'em off to the drugstore, but that can actually be a bit of pot luck when it comes to framing and such. We use the scanner often enough to make it worthwhile, and we don't have the room for a second, compact B&W laser. The only real thing I need to do is replace this with a tank version. Ink is still crazy, but momentum keeps us going with it. A full set of ink cartridges cost about 1/2 of a new printer. Other than that, I'm pretty content with this thing.
