Homebrew PCBs

Can someone give me a short recap on the status of direct printing with 
injet printers?  Is there a mod that is considered usable or is it 
still pretty much in the experimentation stage?

Lacking a usable direct print via inkjet method, can someone suggest a 
new or used laser printer that is inexpensive but will do a good job of 
printing to the Staples Photo Basic Gloss paper?

Thanks,

Paul
