Should I buy a color laser printer? was a thread about two years ago on color laser printers for home/home office use.
The HP LaserJet 2600N and Konica Minolta 2400W were the favorite models, they sold in the $250 to $300 price range, we learned the OEM cartridges are not always full-capacity versions, and speed, print quality, and networking options were important.
I got the HP model back then, and I noticed it is no longer made. I even saw one for $149 a few weeks ago, and was tempted to buy it just for the cartridges.
What is new and available? In a month or two I'm going to have to replace cartridges for almost twice the cost of buying the same printer new again.
