I've got $200 or so. What's the best OSX USB Laser printer?

I only need A4, and I love a good greyscale!

Help!

Brother HL-1440
Brother HL-1230
Lexmark Optra E321

I got my Samsung ML 1210 for hella cheap, and it is awesome. I am astounded by the price:quality ratio. Well, it was my mom who was more astounded because she bought it ;). But she was so astounded she bought a ML-1430 for our small business. Ive only been happy with Samsung, so you might look into them.

Stay away from $200 laser printers. My best friend repairs laser printers all day, and he knows the junk brands -- Lexmark, Brother, Epson (sometimes)... the best? You betcha -- Apple.

HP is the standard, and even then the 1000 model's a piece of junk.

Save up about $200 more and you'll be able to afford a decent printer, or just buy a thrifty inkjet.
