Color laser cartridges seem to last just about forever in storage,
just like B/W toner. Although they are expensive, they are still
cheaper than inkjet per page. I've also had good luck refilling color
laser cartridges, unlike inkjet. I highly recommend OKIdata's color
LED printers. They have fewer moving parts than a color laser, but
the printing technology is similar.
