Hi, Bert,
If you can find an HP in your price range, go for it.
I had a LexMark for a while and didn't like it -- but that was in part because the available driver for the Mac OS wasn't ready for prime time.
I understand the Brother printers are reliable, but don't have the features of the HP units. (this may be incorrect or out-of-date information)
that 's my two cents
Frank

Hello folks,
I need some advice.
I'm in the market for a new laser printer. I'll be attaching it to my
small office network, so it must have ethernet hookup. 4 out of 5
computers are running Ubuntu, so Linux compatibilty is a must.
I've had old HP laserjets that never died, never jammed and never
complained. (my LJ4 Plus for example). So I'm kind of partial to HP
laserjets, but I don't think that the quality is the same now as it was
back in the glorious '90s. On the other hand, what else is out there?
Lexmark? Brother? I know nothing about the reliability or reputation
of those guys.
So if you were in my shoes, and had a budget of up to $200 to spend on a
monochrome laser, what would you get? All opinions are welcome. All I
know is that if I make the wrong decision, I'll be re-enacting the
printer destruction scene in "Office Space".
Thanks,
Bert
