I'd avoid ink jets altogether.  Black and White Lasers are really
cheap now, and have a cheaper per copy price.

I love my networked black and white Brother laser that does
duplexing.  I think it was under $300, so maybe the people who really
need one on their desks could have one of those and you could get
another one or two plus a networked color printer for the people who
would rather have the desk space, and put the smell and the noise
somewhere else.

If you find you are serving the same thing too often to the same
people, then invite someone else instead. It is much easier to change
your friends than your recipes.
