I prefer the panasonic Laser Partner for approx $1,300 nowadays.
It has two 250 pg paper input bins, face down output bin, 11 pages per minute
printer engine.  Full compatability with hp laserjet.  The only thing it doesnt
do is accept hp font cartridges.  It does download hp-compatible fonts.

I have had one for about a year running 24 hours a day, printing about 10,000
pages per month without any problems.
