Toners are wax resin
based and while storage life is good it's not great.
Laser printers (and all toner based systems) are really no good for
archiving data. The toner is only melted onto the surface, and will come
right off if aped on! Take a laser printed page and fold it up a few
times, then put it into a pocket for a few days and walk around with it -
you will notice far less toner in some areas.
Also, are not most inks for inkjet based systems water based? That spells
trouble.
