I have the old HP6 and I have had much better luck than using my Cannon Inkjet.  Maybe it's the inks, but I have had no trouble with using the old HP.

  I can only envision a few instances where a Laser would give
  better opacity results than an inkjet.

  A) Transparency film used is for Laser ONLY. Inkjet ink
  "pools" or "puddles"

  B) Inkjet in DRAFT mode, I seem to recall some printers that
  would "lock" into draft when the ink hit a certain low quantity
  level remaining in the cartridge. Possibly a corrupt printer driver.

  C) Really OLD Inkjet Printer i.e "360 dpi"
