The Tektronix phase change series of printers which use solid ink are
worth a look if you are looking for cheap consumables. I can't keep up
with model numbers, they were all marked 'SP' at one point, but not any
more.

Ink jets may not be too bad if you choose carefully and if you refill
cartridges, the Epson ones are particularly good and easy to refill. See
elsewhere for my recommendation on how to turn a cheap inkjet into a
cheap Postscript clone... cross my palm with silver and I'll nip round
and install one for you.
