Inkjet has far superior color reproduction to laser. Even the highest end production color laser copiers can't do the same level of color matching that inkjet can

As for home/office use, yes inkjets are a huge scam

I don't know if you can get highlighter toner for a laser printer.

Very high end devices (the size of a printing press) will sometimes have spot color capabilities, for finishes like neon colors or clear coating

You can get good printers used too. My last printer served me for about 10 years. I don't print a lot, so I only did a couple thousand prints during that time. Not enough enough to finish off the cartridge that was in it when I bought the printer. I paid $50.

> Interesting, but it's a lot easier to just toss out the inkjet and buy an inexpensive laser printer.

Ah yes, the true hacker ethos.
