A laser printer for home

[Guest]

Archived from groups: comp.periphs.printers (More info?)

I'm intentioned to let my old Epson Stylus Pro retire and buy a b/w laser
printer. Considering the budget and the specs, the models I feel like
choosing from are:

1)HP 1015,
2)OKI B4250,
3)OKI B4350(which as far as I got differs from B4250 only in the support for
a bigger toner which can lead to some savings only in the long term).

I'm searching for a printer which can serve me for long with a good quality
and speed in text with some b/w detailed graphics and of course the less the
maintenance costs the better. At the moment I'm pretty much for the OKI
ones, but I'd like to have the opinion of someone who already had some
experiences with laser printing and maybe even with those models, both from
HP and OKI, that I'm considering to buy.

Any suggestion about other printers in that budget zone is welcome also.

Thanks in advance,

kl31n

Might be good if you told us your "budget zone", rather than just
listing a couple of printers and expecting us to know their prices.

I apologize for the lack of information. The budget zone is 300 euro.

Best regards,

Basicly, stay away from anything called a Windows or GDI printer.
They are the worst words to put in a description, as they mean that the
printer willnot work with the next Windows version.

Get something that does PCL 5 or PCL 6. Or Postscript. Means that
the printer is more operating system independent.
