Laser printer or what?

Can someone just walk me through the fundamental difference between a laser printer and these inkjet ones?🙂
I'm looking to pick up a new printer for some basic home use, though I’d really like color options. I used to have an Epson model, and the colors would constantly dry up because I didn't print often enough. It was a huge hassle.
Also, how do the prices compare between standard inkjets and lasers?
Thanks.

I'm looking to pick up a new printer. It’s just for some light stuff around the house, but I’d really love to have color options. My old Epson was a total nightmare—the ink would constantly dry up and clog because I barely ever used it. I need something more reliable than that.
So, what's the deal with the prices on regular inkjets versus laser printers?
Thanks.

Check out this HP LaserJet Pro.

Why?

Looking for a budget-friendly color laser printer.
You can usually get about one or two refills out of them, maybe lasting around four hours. $83 Plus tax. Honestly, you won't find anything cheaper if you want high-quality color laser prints.

Watch out for those starter toners that come with a new printer. You’ll burn through them before you even realize it, and honestly, replacing the whole set is such a massive rip-off. $333 Plus sales tax. And honestly? After you go through those two ink refills, you might as well just toss the whole thing and buy a new printer. If you're looking at inkjets, it’s way more cost-effective that way.

You really have to sit down and think about whether you can actually afford that.
