I have come to hate my inkjet color multifunction printer. I hate having to crawl under the desk and change printer cartridges every other week, I hate having to reload blank paper every other day, I hate the long delay before it starts printing, I hate that I paid for scan/copy features that I haven't used in years, I hate everything about it. Arrgh. And, most of all, I hate that it no longer works.

I want a printer that can be loaded up w/ hundreds of sheets and print for months and months before needing new ink. I want a laser.

Does anyone have recommendations for an affordable color laser printer? I'm looking at the HP1215 ($199) but would be open to suggestions.

My criteria - this is for home use, so I don't need Ethernet or 100MB memory. Needs to be Mac-friendly. I'd like to be able to print the occasional 4x6 photo, but 90% of the use will be mono text, 9% color documents, 1% photos. Availability of refilled/recycled toner would be nice.
