Yup.
A few years ago I needed to print something for a job I was applying for and I had three inkjets, none of which worked. Replacement ink wasn't even a guaranteed solution and was going to cost three figures anyway...so I started looking into whether there was a better option.
Ended up buying a Brother color laser printer. A bit spendy, but now when I need to print something after not printing for months, I just literally tell it to print and it gets it exactly right, first try, every time.
Zero regrets.
