Ink cartridges are so expensive especially when printing a lot of web
pages and documents at home in both colors and B&W with previous HP
OfficeJet Pros (8600 and 8028e). Also, copying, scanning, and faxing
through old fashion phone lines. Do toners last longer? Are laser ones
any better even though they cost more? I noticed laser types are HUGE!
Quality results aren't required, but nice to have for rare photos,
cards, etc.

Thank you for reading and hopefully answering soon. :)

So, they don't make smaller sizes like inkjets' size like HP's 8028e.
