I am looking too! I think I want wireless so I can print from my cell phone. I am looking at possibly getting an HP P1102W. Does anyone have one of these? TIA, J.

I have that one. It is my back up printer. It is quite fast for its size. You can only print one size pages. Wireless printing is nice but you can only print from a phone if the printer in on your network. You also have to be close enough to talk to your network. That is the way mine works. There maybe other programs that do more but I haven't found one.

I like my Brother HL 6180DW
and all the Brother printer haters will hop on this. But, it is dual tray that auto selects, with auxillary tray for those odd sizes, prints 45PPM and I've found great sources for the toner at extremely reasonable rates. Just my input. But, you have to make certain that wherever you buy it the second tray is included or price it without and buy separate. I think I got a good price on mine on sale. It has all the wireless networking capabilities and I can print from my phone from outside the house. Don't know if that's the printer or my router/modem. It also has some other features that are too high tech for me, like the remote print option. You can look up all the features on the brother site.

Another Brother lover here
Thats my next buy. I see the complete printer (2nd tray) for $329. Without the 2nd tray its $299. Been a brother fan since 2006. Every printer I own is a brother, even the inkjet one I have for the kids. Ive had other printers before and Ive hated them.
Plus Brother compatible toner I get in bulk for $100 (5 toners) last me 6-7 months. A drum cost only $25-45. I replace that twice a year.

I think I will be on this bandwagon also. It just looks soooo good.

Re: I like my Brother HL 6180DW
I have been using the Brother 6180dwt since July. I absolutely love it. Fast, priced ok and also get toner for a good price. I require wifi on printers because I have 2 offices (same location) and 2 computers that must talk to the same printer. All my printers are wifi.
If you can get this printer with the second tray for $329 I would jump on it. I paid a little more but still a good deal.

Re: I like my Brother HL 6180DW
Absolutely love my Brother HL-6180DWT! I researched it and then waited for it to be released. I purchased it online for $349, with the 2nd tray and wireless, on sale when it first came out so if yo can get it for that or less I would jump on it. It's a workhorse.
Not a fan of HP's. My other printer is a Brother HL-5280DW dual tray wireless and it's still trucking but noticeably slower after the HL-6180. I print two complete sets of docs in about 10 minutes or less on it.
High yield compatible toner (TN780) will cost you minimum $100 as of now though.
Favorite thing about it besides the fast printing is each tray holds 500 pages. Nice....
I also don't have to stand over it for misfired pages as with some printers. Hit print and forget about it.

Re: Printers....hp4350
I have had great luck with Samsungs. Quick printing (33ppm) and less costly. Some you can purchase with additional trays. For me, I just use the sheet feeder tray for the legal. Works fine.
