It is not possible to print the PCB directly on the bare copper clad.
You will have to print the mirror image of PCB artwork on a Photo Paper/OHP Sheet first.
Then the artwork has to be transferred on the copper clad.
When the artwork is transferred on the clad, you will have to etch it.

Have a look at this video for better explanation

HP LaserJet Pro - P1108 is a printer which lies in the 6k-6.5k range...

Good Luck!

You can use an inkjet printer. U must ensure that copper clad should not have any burrs and it should be neat and clean. Just you have to alter the paper feeding mechanism to feed the copper clad. Use ur own brain, u will succeed and can bring the product in INDIAN market with lesser cost by buying used inkjet printers and altering it. Inkjet printers are losing reputation now a days over laser printers.

No.. The cartridge for the paper will work..But make sure that it moves freely on copper clad.
