Advantages: Quality, speed

Disadvantages: high price

When I have to buy a decent laser printer for one of the groups in my department, Lexmark is always the brand I go for. The are reliable, built to last and give excellent product. The page throughput is excellent (after warming up for the first page obviously) with about 10 pages per minute or so in real life situations. the print quality is excellent - text is spot on and photographs / images look like they should (albeit in monochrome). They can be easily networked with an additional internal card and when given an IP address, their status can be checked over an Intranet or the Internet. Additional paper trays can be very easily installed beneath, the only hassle is lifting the thing - they're not light.
They are not cheap, but in this case, you do get what you pay for with a printer that, apart from changing the toner every 16 / 17000 pages or so and maintenance every 100000 pages can be left alone and not need much support, which is exactly the sort of product that an IT support person needs !
