I'm after a 1200dpi mono PostScript laser printer, with the ability to
print on both sides of the paper and an Ethernet connection.

The only thing I care about aside from that is `Not HP'. I've had too
many bad experiences with HP kit in recent years (not to mention with HP
itself).

I was going to suggest a HP Laserjet 4100, which is what I got earlier
this year. They don't get much cheaper to run than this, and it has a
monthly duty cycle of about 120,000 pages. The first cartridge did 12000
pages, and cost £23 to replace.

Apart from that, I have had very good experience with Kyocera Lasers in
a work environment. We had them in a car dealership, and they lasted for
years. My mother-in-law has a basic Kyocera (FS1 I think), and still
hasn't replaced the cartridge after three years.
