Laser printers are the best. You sacrifice the quality of dense pictures, but gain incomparable speed and reliability. It’s especially worth it if you print less often, because the ink dries up if you don’t print every once in a while and you end up buying new ink even though the cartridge is full, but the toner just sits there indefinitely.
Ink drying up is intentional btw. My old HP inkjet does not have that problem and it takes refills, prints black and white without needing color ink, does not have an internet connection, require a subscription or come with any other bs. We perfected inkjet printers 20 years ago and then started the enshittification process.

I’ve been in the color laser gang since 2006 when they started to go under $500
I got a pair of used Brother color lasers for $50 each.
I’m normally the one in my house trying to get rid of things, but keep those (and/or send them to me, lol).
I have a HL3170CDW color laser. It was on sale for under $200 at the time.
you forgot the best part, the papers are all nice and warm
