Hi, I need to buy a laser printer that works well with the latest MacOSX. Can you please recommend one (or more)?
I'm not sure whether I want a color laser printer or a black and white, so please feel free to give me advice on the pros and cons of each. I have a color inkjet, so I don't have to get a color laser printer. My guess is that the inkjet ink will smear more if wet, but perhaps the color will look better (at least with photos). On the other hand, I expect that the clarity of the laser printer text is better. Mostly, I use the color inkjet for photos and the odd text page with color on it, and I use our old black and white laser for most text. Unfortunately, I have to replace the old (and I mean old, HP LaserJet 5M) laser printer. In general, are black and white laser printers more reliable than color laser printers, or are they about equal? What about consumables? I assume the color toner cartridges cost more than the color inkjet cartridges, but they probably also last longer. Is this a wash, or is one much less expensive to operate than the other in the long run? My old laser printer connects via ethernet, but we have WiFi as well. Is printing faster or more reliable via ethernet? Any advice on what to buy, or what to avoid, would be much appreciated.
