The new Dell's are proprietary and you have to get their toner. That is not such an issue any longer staples and others has them, just stock up.
The larger HP all-in-one lasers are great. The Lower end ones have an issue that they eat toner cartridges badly. Get one that you can get a high yield cartridge. Brothers are good as well. I have had a few of the lower end units that have had print tray issues.

They seem to do well for them. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com On 11/23/2010 8:32 AM, Robert West wrote: > I see the same issues with the OfficeJets but only with the Inkjet models. > The laser models work flawlessly for me but they are only black and > white, at least the ones I have.
