I still don't get why anyone is buying inkjet printers for the past 20 years. It makes zero sense to me.

Color laser printers are very expensive and still don't achieve the same picture quality as an inkjet printer. And I have read once that dust from laser printers might cause cancer but not sure how much there really is to that.

No they're not, and the quality is better. Quit lying.

They are, though. By a huge margin.

You think $250 is "very expensive" for a printer?

[–] Apollo@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 year ago

This is gonna blow your mind mate - statements like "very expensive" are entirely subjective.

Also ten times the price of the cheapest inkjet printers is considerably more expensive - one could even call that 'very' expensive in comparison, no?
