Advise on selecting a laser printer please

cem

Be grateful for advise on selecting a good quality laser printer under <£350...

Main things required are:

Colour
Duplex (double side print)
Wi-Fi Connect

Apart from that, I dont really need a 'all in one' function or anything else. The things above are main ones..

Many thanks in advance for your help.
ps: Reason for selecting a laser one is as my inkjet ink cartirdges keep getting dried up all the time and I am sick of changing them every few weeks.

Colour - No
Duplex - No
WiFi - Yes

A long way off what the user is looking for.

This one will do everything but duplex -

Duplex is more of a business feature for HP and I am struggling to find one at your budget.

Beware of cheap home user laserjets, many are toner replaceable only, a bit of a pain when your fuser goes, always check out the price of toners before you buy, a full set can cost and much if not more that the actual printer.

As per the above, duplex is going to be the problem at that budget. Some printers allow duplex of sorts, they print alternate pages then you turn them over and put the paper back in the tray and it then prints the remaining pages on the other side.

It's a pain as it's easy to put the paper in the wrong way if you only use it rarely. Also paper that has already been through the printer is more prone to a miss-feeding or jamming which again ruins the whole thing.

After a few failures or a visit from the can't be bothered fairy a lot of people give up and go back to single sided. Also paper is a lot cheaper than it used to be, not ver MSE or planet friendly but a fact of life nevertheless.

All that said a quick Google throws up this;

£312 inc VAT and it says auto duplex.

Thanks but this one seems to be only B&W and also manual duplex which is not what I need

Thanks. So realistically what must the budget be before getting to an acceptable level of good quality duplex printing please?
