What laser printers do you like?



My HP LJ1200 was cheap at the Micro Center, but to compensate for that, 
I added memory, bringing it up to 72 MB.  With the original 8 MB, it 
broke up pages with large graphics, printing portions of them on 
separate sheets.  Now it's fine.

For a while I tried to attach it directly to the LAN with a pocket-sized 
Hawking print server, but that needed to be reset constantly.

Connecting it to my Linux server by a parallel cable or by USB works 
easily, and CUPS knows how to use it.   I only print a few pages per 
week, and the initial cartridge lasted well over a year.   The print 
quality has been uniformly good.
