A few years ago I got a Fuji Xerox DocuPrint P115 monochrome laser printer. It's small/compact, looks elegant, fits nicely in a corner of a top shelf in a closet, works fine over Wi-Fi, and it always works perfectly about the 3-4 times a year I need to print something. It cost about $150 and didn't hook you into any toner subscriptions or other strings attached. It's been perfect. Fuji Xerox doesn't make it or anything like it anymore. HP has one that looks similar [1] – could that be as good? The equivalent Brother models all seem much bigger and uglier. I'm not looking forward to having to replace it, whenever that day comes.

The Brother HL-L2370DW is in the same price class ($159) and is a solid monochrome laser printer. I'm about 1000 pages in and no issues. Maybe you don't like the dark color scheme, but I find it to be quiet when not in use, unobtrusive, about the same size as everything else, and no more or less ugly than other printers.

  Thanks for the tip. That Brother unit is quite a big bigger, particularly the depth. I most like the Fuji Xerox for being so compact (it has a tray that folds out to store the paper). Fuji Xerox: W 340 x D 238 x H 189 mm Weight 4.6 kg Brother HL-L2370DW: W 356 x D 361 X H 182 mm Weight 7.2 kg But yep, the Brother units are certainly good for performance and cost, and I'd probably go for one of them rather than an HP.

    Wow, I didn’t realize how shallow that is! It would be super nice to have something like that for my space. I wonder why other manufacturers haven’t followed suit.
