Our workhorse at the office, an HP 2500L Color LaserJet, is finally starting to crap out on us. I’ve got the green light to start looking for a new one, but I don’t know much about them… So I was hoping some of you helpful, knowledgeable kirupians could help me out! I’ll also be checking out reviews at Newegg and Amazon, but I thought I’d ask here as well.

Whatever printer we decide to buy needs to be quality-made - we do a TON of printing around here, so it needs to be built to last.

A high-quality image is pretty important, too - most of our printing is just for our own records, but we also print plenty of flyers and some brochures in-house (and of course, it has to be color).

Speed would be a big plus, but it’s not the most important thing.

It only needs to be able to print on 8.5" x 11", but I suppose if it could go bigger that could be beneficial.

I like the way our current inkjet photo prints look, but I’d be open to a laser printer, too.

So… if anybody has any suggestions, I’d really appreciate it! Thanks!
