Looking for a new B&W tabloid laser printer. Fast, reliable, that's not going to cripple us on toner costs.
Any recommendations? Thanks!

I've used an HP 5200 that was great, toner was less than $60, but the printer itself wasn't cheap- ~1500. they last forever though.
by the way- did you used to live up the hill on Ashbury? I think I know you from way back in the '90s.

same here, looking into the Phaser 5550/N, or the HPs. I noticed:
1- The HP has PostScript Level 3 Emulation VS the Xerox has true PSL3.
2- The Phaser has a 10/100/1000 Ethernet port, important to us. I dont see that on the HP.We are ready to pull the trigger today, so any advice would be good.
Thanks

phaser

I've used phaser color printers, and they were great. can't speak to the b&w ones.
you can get the jetdirect fast ethernet option for the hp to give you network connectivity. you can also get a cheap d-link print server that'll add ethernet to just about any printer.

we had the drum on our HP go out more often than the drum on the Phaser, but the phaser seemed to have higher ink costs.
