My advice: get a mono laser printer. Printing is handy but relatively infrequent for a lot of people these days. If that's your use case, mono laser is the way to go. Toner does not dry out or go bad.

Lasers are definitely a great option, but we got a printer with liquid ink and it's been great. Much cheaper than proprietary cartridges and they don't go stale if you don't print anything for a few weeks.
