I agree with Steve on this.

a $50 inkjet can do a fine job on proper trannies
(if it has UV blocking ink)

a $2000 laser printer can just compete on trace/space
but is not as good on large fills

It takes a medium car priced laser printer to beat
an inkjet for making phototools.  Then only some of
them.  We have had expensive printers that have even
failed to do as good as job as a $500 printer.
