1. You would get more pages out of the Laser printer, but the ink costs more. Quality wize there isn't really a different. Laser might be able to print higher quilty faster. Its a matter if you want to pay that much for the ink on a laser, but it lasts a lot longer? Is that worth it?
2. Laser printers can yield up to 2500 sheets on a nornal cartridge. The inkjet will yield 150 page and up to 200. Laser ink is more expensive to buy but the cost per sheet is pennies and way cheaper than inkjets. Laser cartdige costs 3 times the price of an inkjet but will yield 20 times over.
