[K12OSN] Printer recommendations?

[Accessys@smart.net]

we've been beating the heck out of a HP laserjet 5 for many years, it
just keeps going and going and going.

but we have been given a little money for a color laserjet, now it
will have low usage since I will restrict it's use, but any one have
any recomendations.

I do hope to stick with HP since we have had such good results with
em.   I know a laser is no where near as good as an inkjet for photos
but decent looking photos would be nice plus.

any suggestions

Bob
