color laser jet recommendations

[bfromcolo]

We have a very good Epson inkjet that does a great job, but with 9 Durabrite cartridges it's expensive to feed, so it really only gets used for photos and art work. For general purpose printing we have been using an old HP 722C but it's on its last legs, and pretty much have to buy refilled cartridges off ebay these days since HP stopped supporting it. I am in the market for a color laser printer that does a good job with general purpose printing and is not expensive to operate.

I'd rather buy a decent printer up front if it made toner refills simpler. This whole model of disposable printers with expensive low volume cartridges gets old, how about a good quality printer that's refillable?

Any ideas?

Not Brother.
I have one now, got it dirt cheap at a Staples clearance.
Carts run out too fast, and resetting doesnt work right. Also print quality is meh and too many errors like streaks & such.
I looked into reviews. Many of their models have significant complaints.

Picked up this xerox 6010 from staples for a bit less than $150 a few weeks ago. Not the prettiest but does a great job for my home needs.
