If I only needed black and white without 11x17 capability I would definitely have gotten a laser printer. A color laser printer with 11x17 capability start north of $700. The only Epson eco-tank model I could find in stock with 11x17 was over $1000. I bought the workforce model that did what I needed for $200. I know I'm going to be gouged on the ink but I just couldn't swing the upfront cost. Plus with my low volume of printing an $80 set of cartridges will last about 6-9 months.
