For a black and white printer, and not-higher than 600dpi resolution requirements, HP from the late 90s are probably a good buy: http://www.ebay.com/sch/items/?_nkw=hp+4050&_sacat=&_ex_kw=&_mPrRngCbx=1&_udlo=&_udhi=&_sop=12&_fpos=&_fspt=1&_sadis=&LH_CAds= I have one and it just keeps going. You might even find one with a duplexer and be sure that it has a network adapter on it (JetDirect). Printing from any Unix-like OS is a breeze, I print with standard lpd/lpr (no need for CUPS for a printer like this).
