Gone are the days when HP printers were built like out houses.

Canon MF734CDW (can still be found on ebay).
Just works and uses cheap 046 toner cartridges rather than the rather expensive 055 ones the MF744CDW insists on.

I've had a Xerox ColorQube for about a decade. Huge up front cost but boy do they last and replacement parts are easy to get hold of (have only just needed to replace the pick up rollers). I like the solid ink feature which means I'm not left with a huge cartridge to get rid of. They don't make them any more so I'm not sure what the equivalent would be. If you can get hold of a second hand/refurb model, I'd recommend it.
EDIT: I had the Phaser 8500 before I bought the ColorQube, which was just as good but it got dropped when moving house and was never quite the same.

I had an expensive Xerox and it failed 1 month after the warranty, so I'm bitter about that!
Prior to that had a Samsung Colour Laser that lasted ages and ages which I was very happy with - it did eventually fail, but certainly didn't owe me anything.
Now I'm on a Lexmark MC2535 which I've been very happy with and has a long warranty. Duplex printing and scanning, too, if that's your thing

Functional Design Criteria For Printers
I had a German Client who works for HP who told me that the design criteria for English cars were waterproof and did not overheat in traffic.
I pointed out that functional design for printers should be that they do not spit the ******* printouts on my ******* floor.
Any recommendations for a laser printer for my home office? I am tired of buying tulip. Thank you.Tags: None
