Even if you buy an Inkjet, Brother makes good ones (ok, not as good as the lasers) that do work with third party ink. I've owned some small (8.5x 11 us letter size) ones and I just got a big one (11x17 print area), and the experience has been really, really good. It's pretty cheap to operate, even with Brother brand Ink. Their Linux support (at least Ubuntu) isn't bad either.
