What are things you need to buy for color laser printers?

I'm doing this assignment where we have to decide whether it would be better for a business to have an ink-jet printer or a color laser in terms of frequency and cost of changing toner/ink cartridges and quality of print-outs. I wanna know what exactly you need to buy because i've heard people mention, besides the toner cartridges, that there are belt units, waste toner disposal, etc. Im so confused, please helpp!! The color laser printer i'm using is the Brother® HL-3070CW Digital Wireless Color LED Printer

1. You pretty much just need the toner cartridges. Depending on the model of laser printer, it might need a new drum, or that might be a part of the toner cartridge. Belts would just be maintinence items and all priinters have that kind of issue. Anyway, the answer is that laser printers are better by FAR. I mean, virtually no business uses an inkjet printer as their main printing device.
2. Just the toner. The laser printer is definitely better for business. You'll need to replace the cartridges much less frequently, and the printers typically print faster than an inkjet printer. There is an excellent article that talks about the benefits of each here: http://www.castleink.com/_a-buy-printer.html
