Actually I would take it to Minuteman Press or Kinko's etc. They can do a better job then a personal printer.

But if you really want to D-I-Y I would suggest an HP OJ 8500 series printer.

Well unless you have glossy paper that is made for ink jet printers then the ink will smear.
You are looking at problems caused by the limitations of the technology.
Ink jet paper needs to be able to absorb the ink into it. Also, printed ink jet paper has real bad problems handling water spills. It will bleed badly.

Laser paper has to be able to withstand high heat and pressure because that is ow the image is adhered to the page.

I would suggest you have the menus done at a print shop where the press, paper and inks can be selected to give you a durable menu.
