Does low end color laser printers good for photo printing? I'm planning to buy a $200 Samsung color laser printer tomorrow. I don't know if it is worth it to buy it. I heard laser printers are not so good in photo printing that's why I'm asking here. So what should I buy? An inkjet or laser?
What paper is the best/safest for laser printers (not color)? I purchased the Brother 2040 B/W laser printer. I have some black and white photographs and wanted to print them out with the laser printer. However, I've heard that I can't use gloss paper because the heat will melt the coating and ruin the printer. Is there high quality photo paper for laser printers? Does it make a difference if the paper is for color laser printers as opposed to black and white? Factors such as weight, iso brightness, gloss, matte...it is all becoming very confusing with such a wide selection. The photos are pretty sharp and I want to use the highest possible quality paper that is the safest to use on the laser printer. I would like to get the most professional looking results possible with a laser printer. However, finding that paper is proving rather daunting! Thanks for all your help!

Why are people not adopting Color Laser printers? I am considering to buy a color laser printer. Despite prices for color laser printers have fallen, I think not many people are buying them. I would like to find out why. I wonder what could be drivers who have prevented them and conversely compelling drivers that would tip them over to buy. I was told that the cost per page to print a mono copy on a laser color printer is same or close to when compared to a laser mono printer. What's more you can have the flexibility to print color if I want to anytime too. I wonder if this is true. Oh yes, what brands/models would be a good short list and if I have to choose one brand/model, which should stand out clearly from the rest? Thanks..

Color laser printer which can print without connecting to a computer? Hi, I am looking for a color laser printer, which can print without a computer. ie, through a USB input. Say if I have a USB flash drive, I should be able to see filenames in an LCD screen and be able to print files (documents mostly). I know that there are some photo printers with pictbridge (?) etc. But I am looking for a small office where the above can be achieved. Thanks. The USB drive might not have the capability to send files to the printer, but I want to see a printer having the capability to read the files in the USB drive. Since files are of different format, a simpler solution will be to atleast be able to read postscript files (*.ps) and print it. If there are no printers like this, may be its a good idea for someone to add this feature.
