Judging by the ones you've mentioned this may be out of your budget but
I have had excellent experiences with Kyocera's. We use the 2050+ (mono)
and the 5020N (colour) from their FS range. The colour ones are in the
£700-£900 range but in terms of cost efficiency they pay for themselves
quite quickly. Linux PPD's on the driver CD as well. I'd had numerous
problems with Epson lasers in the past (mono and colour) but had used
some older Kyocera's in a previous job. They were like a breath of
fresah air when we got them here.
cheers
