color inkjet ink vs. color laser printer toner?

My wife & I have a Canon i860 color inkjet printer. We use it only
about once every 3 months. Each time one or more of the cartridges
are shown as low or dried out & we have to replace many of the ink
cartridges, even though they have not been used fully.

Would this expense & ink replacement time be lessened if we trashed
the inkjet & purchased a color laser printer?
It is said that the toner is powder that does not dry out. But are
there other problems using color laser printers?

Is the consumable expense about the same, more, or less for laser
color vs. inkjet color.

All opinions welcomed! Aaron

Printer i320-pixma

if i reset the active 1600, the inklevel is full but only so long the printer is on...

[(i used "SCREEN.EXE" in "General Tool Untuk Berbagai Tipe Printer i320-pixma" folder and push the "3" Button, after setting right usb port -- after that the printer status show full cartridges)].

If i turned the printer off and after that on, the cartridge is empty again :(
no way...

by the way. It happened me that i get a ip2200 after using that tool... the printer declare as an ip2200!!! I must download the new driver and it works! after that he print faster... I don't know whether the electronic can handle it... Therefore i bring it back to an ip1600... But the inklevel problem is not away...

ideas?
