Looks very very cool but I don't want to deal with an inkjet printer ever again.

Same, is there any real reason they should exist? isn't laser just better ?? If i have to ' repair ' my printer every 14-55 prints, is it really a printer or just a really frustrating puzzle game?

Aren't laser printers super toxic?

Sadly it's all german, but here are the sources: https://www.bundesumweltministerium.de/themen/gesundheit/innenraumluft/emissionen-aus-laserdruckern
