I knbow jack about printers... only 2 I know is Inkjet and Laser. I want the latter, but I don't know where or what to look for?

I have about $250 to spend on a printer. I don't want an inkjet cuz well I'm tired of them dying out on me. I had 2 HP's and 1 Canon and they both pretty much failed on me. What should I look for?

I usually print B/W so color is not so important to me. I just want one that reliable and makes awsome print outs. Are HP Laserjets good? Or Lexmark? Is Xerox still around?

Went to local Staples... has a Minolta 1250W Laser for $100, its 1200x1200 dpi black and white.. USB/Parrallel 8 MB RAM. Went to J&R in City has a Brother and Samsung for $169 cheapest but both are 2 MB and PARALLEL only... Is the Minolta any good anyone know? Please thanks for any info
 
I have an Epson Stylus Photo 820 Photo Printer. I cant get enough of this thing. got it for 170 or so after tax. Does GREAT print outs~!
 
i use a HP inkjet. havent had a problem with it yet... actually, i have 4 of em.

but if you want a laser printer, i would suggest.... HP as well. i still have my HP laserjet 4MP. it's like 8-10 years old now, still working.

You can't get an HP worth a damn under $800.
 
$160 Hmm sounds pretty good.. and BestBuy will probably take it back if I don't like it.

When did Samsung start making printers?

I would check out the Minlota Laser Printer at Staples this week (my store) ... if you use a coupon it would cost 60 bucks after rebate/cpn. This is a nice little printer with great text and a low cost to run... pm me if you have questions

they aren't heavy cycle like HP, but for home or small office use, they are fine

the HL 1440 is available for ~$250

YES!!!

You make me like you more every day, VI. 😉

Personally, I like Lexmark printers. Kinda expensive on the cartidges, tho, but that's because you get a new print head everytime.
