I've been using a Samsung black and white laser printer for quite a few years now and I've been happy with it. I put in a third party toner cartridge two or three years ago and it's still going strong.

I have a Samsung as well. It's quite old and in order to print I have to:

  1. press print
  2. wait for it to try and fail
  3. turn it off and then on
  4. press print again
  5. push the paper in right as it's trying to grab (otherwise it won't grab any).

If I don't follow all these steps it won't print. I bought a 2 pack of toner, though, so I am not allowed to get a new one until I use it all, which will take forever since I rarely print because it's such a pain.
