It was only 2 weeks ago that I donated my HP LaserJet MFP, which was manufactured in 2010. It was still 100% functional and had never required a repair. Even the paper rarely jammed.

My father has always insisted on purchasing the latest inkjet at Costco and he has probably burned through 5 printers in those 16 years when I had one. The OEM compatible toner cartridge was ubiquitous, and lasted around 18 months for my low-volume needs.

I would never dare purchase anything but a LaserJet. HP has been so very good to me in engineering, support, and reliability. I considered a Brother printer, but without any valid reason to leave HP behind, I stuck with them again for a new model. No regrets!

Wouldn’t say zero but if you are printing most kinds of documents the laser is the way to go.

On the other hand I am an inkjet enthusiast who prints photos and art reproductions and you can get great results if you: get a good printer, use OEM ink, use quality paper, and perfect your technique. Cheap inkjets do amazingly good work for you pay but will have you tearing your hair out… and knock it off with the third-party ink.

Yes. Lasers don't get clogged print heads.

And when you occasionally want high quality photo prints, outsource the printing to Walmart, Walgreens, OfficeDepot, Shutterfly etc.. Pickup in 1 hour in some cases.

For personal use, a laser printer with a network plug that speaks postscript has had zero problems for me.

This. I switched to a laser printer many years ago, and have yet to have any sort of problem at all.
