I have a Samsung CLP-310.  Been working well for a while now and was fairly cheap when I got it.  Before that I had a Konica Minolta which was also very good for about 3 years and then it died.  I've run colour lasers for a few years now and have only ever changed the toner once, they go on for years.

I find you can't over load it with paper otherwise it doesn't pick up the next sheet.  Envelopes need to be printed 1 at a time, however laser printers tend to heat press creases into envelopes.  It's not a bad printer over all, I think every printer I've had has jammed a little.  It is a nice compact design as well that wireless so can go anywhere in the home.

I also have a CLP-310.  It's a very nice piece of work.  Its only possible downfall is that while it may work on things other than plain paper, it bears a label saying it's nor warrantied for use with anything else.

I have a cheap B&W laser printer for labels, etc, so I've never needed to check, but it's worth bearing this issue in mind.

Thanks for the replys ended up getting a canon pixima mp560 not a laser but not sure if that's what I really needed so played it safe.
