My Brother colour laser is an absolute tank (by weight, if nothing else) and happily uses the cheapest eBay toner going. It can sit idle for months then get plugged in and hammer out 400 pages, double sided. I'll never use an inkjet again, they're always nightmares.

We'll see how long it goes before the fuser carks it, but so far it's been pretty cost effective, considering the thing itself was £200.
