What I want is a cheap printer that can print PCBs.

Small CNC engraving/milling machines suitable for making PCBs (and with the benefit of being able to drill the holes for you) can be had for around $200. Microcenter sells one.

Presumably you want more than 2 layers. The technology for creating 2 layer boards has been around for quite a long time and is quite cheap.

Have you considered the Voltera PCB printer?
