I strongly recommend a laser printer over an inkjet even for home

worth the lack of colour, IMO.
How do they compare for light and  occasional use? I'm thinking in
terms of a few pages, a few times a year, so presumably the
consumables become perishables.
Quite well. Toner doesn't dry up :)

Watch the older type fusers though- they can develop 'flat spots' on the rollers. The newer printers use a ceramic type fuser which has fast warm-up and no flat spot troubles.

Also keep the dust low on _any_ printer and it will last longer and perform better. Dusty paper can cause major issues (both printing and mechanical) as well.
