Can anyone recommend a monochrome (black toner) laser printer that is
currently available and reasonably priced (<$300). I am interested in
finding one as i am sick and tired of buying ink every month even when
I'm not printing much. Have tried the Brother 2270DW but can't get it
to work. Which ones work easillyl, if any? Thanking in advance.
Have gone thru many of the printers listed saying they are linux
printers but when I get to the actual printer if it's available it's $
1,200 or not available when it's in the $2-300 range. Just wondering
if there are any still available out there, reasonably priced.
Using Jessie will be going to Stretch in a few months.....
Thanks.

I have been using an hplj-pro-m201 (HP LaserJet Pro m-201) for about a
year or so. It works nicely with Linux. The driver comes right up in
PCLinuxOS, so no problem installing it.
Reasonably fast. Not very expensive. I don't remember what I paid for
it, but it's certainly under $200. I print a lot of notes on various
things Linux and ham radio, and miscellaneous,
and it has so far been completely reliable. I don't think it runs
wireless, but I don't remember. I run it on my lan via CAT-5 cable.
