I would have thought it is a dying market. Sample size of one but I probably print 10 pages a year now.
Back in the twentieth century, laser printing used to be the exclusive realm of high volume shared printers in offices, but that price cliff quickly disappeared in the twentyfirst. But somehow, the printing cartridge industry managed to keep the illusion of "I don't print enough to warrant a printing method that isn't plagued by drying it when not in use" alive even while offering laser printers for tens of dollars right next to them. Apparently the lure of pretty colors is that strong. I suspect that even people too young to be born when it was still true regularly fall for "I don't print enough to warrant a printing method that isn't plagued by drying it when not in use"
Colour lasers remain quite expensive and usually don't include the extra scanner which is handy to have at times. Though lasers do have the benefit of being able to print onto clear transparent sheets which inkjets straight up can't unless you get those special roughened ones.
Looking around it seems like most brands have variants of the cheaper models that also have scanners. The last time I bought a laser printer, both color and black and white, it was a simple choice to have a scanner or not. And $330 at office depot is only 50% more than an inkjet.
Still this does surprise me, last I checked they were all over $600 at the very least, so the prices have come down in recent years I guess.
If you regularly print full-color photos, by all means get an inkjet. (Perhaps consider one of the tank-based models, though.) Otherwise, a laser printer will generally be more economical for home printing in the long run, especially if you can settle for a black-and-white model, and you can always take the rare exceptions requiring full color to a print shop or photo kiosk.
