Might not be the best place to ask, but nowhere else reliant seemed alive.

My old laser printer has given up the ghost. What are people’s recommendations on a replacement. As far as I’m aware, Brother are about the only company both making reasonably priced printers and not playing stupid games. Beyond that though, I’m not up to date on what’s good and what’s not.

Requirements.

  • Colour laser.

  • WiFi

  • Works with both windows and Linux

  • No need for scanner etc.

  • CD/ID card printing nice, but not required.

  • Photo quality nice, but not required (we have an ink sublimation printer for photos).

I’m UK based, which can mess with availability.

Thanks in advance.

    Seconding Brother.

    Alternatively, I have a canon pixma (can’tremember the model. 45something.) It’s not great, but it’s reliable and it was dirt cheap. I’ve had it for years with no issues. Plus my cat likes to sleep on top of it, which I guess is a positive thing. It does have a scanner, though.

      I’ve a hard no regarding inkjets. Our print requirements are intermittent. An object tends to dry out, or waste its ink WAY too quickly.

      I’d rather spend a bit more on something that will just work for another decade than deal with inkjets again.
