I’ve been using brother laser printers for over 15 years now. Toner is very reasonably priced from them and lasts forever. Plus, no sketchy things like forced registration.
Can you recommend me a recent one that prints color too?
I've been using the HL-L8360 for a few years and I still haven't had to replace the cartridges it came with. Gone through probably 8-10 reams of paper in that time. The starter cartridges are the smallest of the three sizes too, so when they go I'll just buy the big ones and probably be good for a half decade or more haha!
If you're looking for something a little cheaper, you could look into something like the HLL3210. I'm not sure which is true laser and which is LED, but usually the inexpensive ones are LED and not true laser printers. Really that only matters if you're looking for that extra-crisp text from a laser printer. For day-to-day printing you'll never care or notice.
Thanks
Literally anything from Brother is good. You can pick any that fits your price range and has features you need.
Now if only they were reasonably sized like inkjets too...
