Vote with your wallet, don't buy inkjets.
If you want color, there's no inexpensive alternative. Is there?
Is $150 too much for your budget?

Not the best color laser printer on the planet, but quite cheap.
Figure on about $70 for a set of 4 replacement clone carts on eBay, or
about $200 for brand new retail. The color carts are good for about
1400 pages:
$70 / 1400 = $0.05/page
(I refill my own color carts, which costs me about $32 to refill 4
carts).
A similar ink spraying printer might cost $30 for a set of carts, and
optimistically print 500 pages (usually less).
$30 / 500 = $0.06/page
In other words, the cost of ink/toner is slightly cheaper for the
color laser printer, if you use refilled and clone carts and toner.
