This is a major reason why I eBay'd an old LaserJet4 when I needed a printer. It's built like a Mack truck, and it doesn't play games with toner levels.

I've got a LaserJet 5 with a duplex unit. The thing weighs a ton, will happily break your back if you try to transport it, and will occasionally get itself into paper jam when you need something printed NOW (mine has thus earned the print queue name of 'satan'), but I still love it. Just gotta keep a parallel port around to plug it into...

What about ozone emissions? Somehow I would feel uneasy around dinosaur printers.
