Look for something with wired ethernet, postscript and IPP, not under €300,
not under 20kg for a BW laser. WLAN is okay but if the printer doesn't have
wired ethernet, it's not targeted at the right market niche.
HP, Lexmark, Brother and others have a long history of making good
printers. As well as crap — people want small lightweight cheap printers so
the same manufacturers make that kind of printer too.
I've heard a rumour that HP has two printer divisions, printers from one
are to be avoided, and the model numbers aren't conclusive evidence of
origin.
