I bought a Canon multipurpose (scanner, fax, copier) for about $350.00. I have had no problems with it during the nearly four years I have had it. No paper jams, no other issues. Ink runs anywhere from $6.50 to $ 16.50 per cartridge. I use my printer a lot, and usually buy two sets of ink cartridges per year.

laser printers DO NOT WORK FOR FABRIC PRINTING. INK JET PRINTERS ARE NEEDED. also, according to surveys and trials, the printers who's ink works best (is permenent) are:
the HP inkjet and the Epsom Printers. both of these tied for best results. running a close second is the Brother inkjet...all of the others...had varying results. also, if you plan to print on fabric it is important that you buy the (name-brand, expensive) ink cartridges. the refill kits and refilled (generic) cartridges do NOT work, they rinse right out of the fabric even after heat setting. printing on fabric is not an inexpensive adventure.
