I’m looking to get a color laser printer in the near future. I mostly print BW, but would like to occasionally print photos or other color documents. A combo machine would be great with a scanner, copier and fax as well. I’m familliar with HP brand-wise, but I don’t really know what’s out there. I am also considering inkjet, but the cartridge cost seems to outweigh the printer cost after a short while.
Some details like brand names and model numbers would be very helpful for research. Thanks!

HP has a laser jet for about $130. I bought one about 6 months ago at Office Max or Office Depot, something… works great.

I bought a refurbished one for $60. It’s like a brand new one and it includes the original factory warranty.
Just pay attention to the cost of the toner. With some brands, it’s more expensive than the printer itself….

The Samsung ML-2010 was one of the first low-cost laser printers and it’s still pretty popular these days. The Brother HL-2040 is another good one. Brother makes cheap laser printers that are also good quality. I would probably stay away from the HP LaserJet 1012, which is typically the cheapest model available. It is slooow (slower than a lot of inkjets) and it just isn’t worth it.
All these machines are monochrome because there is no such thing as a low priced color laser printer, especially an all-in-one. If you are interested in either of those things, you should probably get an inkjet. The cheapest all-in-one laser printer is probably about $250, and you will likely have to pay more than that to get a good one.
