Cheapo Samsung B&W laser was what I went for a decade ago, and it's still going. Like all printers, once you have to replace the cartridge it will cost you about the same as the cost of the printer itself (& it usually comes with a half-full one), but if you're not caning it it should last for years with no problems.
