Why are these so expensive? It is essentially a printer.

Market share? Fewer people buy these, I assume, which means lower demand to defray overhead. Also, I suspect the ink/toner is of a different, more expensive composition to account for the use, and the mechanisms must handle heavier media. Kind of makes sense to me, though I am no expert in ANY OF THESE FIELDS... //@Anonymous: Why are these so expensive? It is essentially a printer.

all label printers use thermal transfer technology, no ink/toner consumption at all, the thermal transfer has the advantage of low consumable cost and fast printing, but the downside is considerably low printing resolution. And the thermal mechanism dominated most of its cost. This dual printer model should be used in a fast pace environment like takeout counter to double printer efficiency and at this price point, this one is unbeatable //@Anonymous: Market share?

compared to '4' series, looks like the '5' series got the Print/Copy Resolution improved from "600 x 600 dpi" to "1200 x 1200 dpi"

We bought one of these during the covid lockdown craziness and it is great. You can get good quality, less expensive toner refills on Ebay also.

Amazon has 4pack(black and color) less than $100.
3k+ pages black and 2k+ pages color.
What are you talking about?
When you click on the printer link, scroll down for toner and see for yourself.. //@anonymous: Toners are more expensive than the printer. //@shopperh: How much is the toner replacement if buy from OEM?

There a reason why this brand is so cheap. Last time I used the shampoo, it left my hair very dried so toss away the bottle.
