I looked up the specs on the epson and I don't think there is a Laserjet equivalent? It really depends on what she is wanting to print. The Epson prints 13 inches by 44 inches and I don't know a laser that does that (in color). Also the Epson uses pigmented inks which are much more finely milled than laser toner. So for quality photos that last a long time the Epsons are better. I suspect, for archival colors, that the Xerox thermal wax printers might come close. However I don't think any of those come in 13 inch wide. Most people who use the Epsons are printing photos and using the 13 inch wide feature of the printers. There are good laser printers that do a good job on photos but I don't know of any larger than 11X17. What is she trying to print?
