The laser printer (3 steps) uses toner. The inkjet is an Epson R280,
with the "claria" dye-based ink. So far I've only tested the black
ink (8 steps).
I also haven't tried my older laserjets (4P and 4) on laser
transparencies yet, or the inkjet on vellum (vellum is cheap but the
ink bleeds if you put too much down).
