Classroom Printer Recommendation? - Markintosh - 10-03-2012
I currently have an HP Color Laser 3600N in my classroom with somewhere around 50,000 cycles on it.
Currently it needs:
4 new toners ($600 because my District has a set vendor)
Transfer belt replaced
Fuser replaced
It seems like it is more likely time to replace.
• Must be ethernet capable so we can share with 30 iPads or natively Airprint capable
• Cheap to operate at around 2000 pages per month
• Color is a big plus but not an absolute deal breaker
Something needs to happen fast...ideas?

Does no one answer computer related questions anymore?

Used HP 4500 to 5500... not color but cheap, built like a tank and generic toner is $35 for 7000 pages.
I have one in my classroom, the media center has three.

I'm not using it for a classroom per se, but I very much like my Samsung: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Samsung-CLP-620ND-Workgroup-Laser-Printer-/290747265151?pt=COMP_Printers&hash=item43b1e3307f
Quiet, nice color, refillable toners, and it's one of the few lasers (color or black and white) that doesn't mangle my envelopes when I print them.

I like that idea Peter. I had a Samsung CLP310 at home for several years and really liked it...victim of lightning.
