The EcoTank draws a lot of power constantly, and can not be left off for long times or that ink will ruin everything.

It has the problem the GP was talking about, increased to complete new levels.

Not in my experience. Have had one for several years, switch it on when I need and turn off for weeks at a time. Runs perfectly and total cost of ownership is already lower than the mid-range pro HP printer I had before.

Also laser printers draw a lot of power constantly, you may be confused here. The toner needs to be kept warm.
