I've owned exactly two printers in the 18 years that I've been a computer user, both HP. The first was their portable inkjet, and since I do very little printing, the printer would sit there getting all gunked up, and it would never work right when I'd go to use it. I swore that I would never again own a printer that uses liquid ink. In 1998, I bought a LaserJet 6L, and it has been working flawlessly ever since. With the demise of parallel printer ports, I had to get a USB adapter so I could use it with my current machine. What's great is that Windows supports it natively, no drivers needed, because HP is notorious for making bloatware printer drivers. Petra has two printers, a small Samsung monochrome laser printer that kicks ass, and a color, all-in-one, fax/scanner/copier/printer from HP that a friend gave her, and IMO, it is a whoreanus piece of crap.
