I like the HP printers best myself (for Laser Printers). We have 8000
series at work and they are decent but personally I like my 1200 at
home best. Lines and fill areas are always solid and uniform. I
haven't done much photo since switching to TT for most things but the
prints I have done to transparency stock looked as good as the ones to
paper do. I actually run on remanufactured cartridges (about $40
instead of $80+) and the results are just as good as the HP OEM
cartridges were. I think the last one was from saveontoner.com.
