Yeah laser is overwhelmingly the way to go. The only problem Ive encounteres is that the costs for wide format go through the roof. I need to print 11x17's regularly but infrequently. The solution i figured out was to get a good consumer all-in-one laser for normal size paper, and then a wideformat inkjet. I hate havung two printers, but the total cost is like $600 instead of $2500+.
