I did not check all of the printers in the list, but the top 4 are all ink jet printers. You're right that lower down the list there are some laser printers as well, but as a list of the top 10 best laser printers, the article is useless.

As is becoming apparent, there is no "large format [color] laser printer" that are in production right now. There are large format printers, color printers, and laser printers, but no printers that meet all three criteria at the same time. They are part mutually exclusive qualifiers.
These generated spam contents are indeed problematic, but if done correctly, should contain zero printer anyway.

That site is nothing but a ad-ridden, affiliate link stuffing, spam site with zero quality. A good search engine would not list useless garbage like that.

That is an accurate criticism and I agree. “This list of laser printers contains only inkjet printers” is not.

What makes you think that you got the same top result as the original commenter?

He can't know, but I'm the original commenter and it was the same article. Apparently it wasn't all ink jet printers, but just the top 4 of the list. Still not great for a list that claims to be explicitly about laser printers.
The top non-ad article I get on DDG is a top-10 article that includes 5 lasers, 1 LED printer: Canon MF741Cdw, Brother HL-L8360CDWT, HP M182, HP M479fdn, Brother MFC-L3710CW (LED), HP M404dn.
