"Laser printers are great for speed and ""business graphics"" (think pie charts). For the rich color and glossy finish of photos you'll want an ink-based solution. When compared side-by-side the ink/bubblejet print will beat out the laser print every time.

For the best results try for a 4-color process (separate Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black cartridges) printer with a native resolution over 1440 dpi.

I've had decent luck with Epsons and HPs. I have heard good things about Canons but have not owned one myself."

From what I've found, no they are not good enough for decent photo prints. If you want to print at home, I would suggest the Epson PictureMate. It only does 4x6 printing, but the quality/value ratio is quite good.
