Best Lazerjet under a grand?

No, the Laserjet 3300 series will be replaced in April if HP sticks to their
usual retirement schedule of two years for each model. The toolbox software
is buggy, bloated, and basically unusable. Not to mention the same paper
skew issues as the 1200. You're better off buying a separate flatbed
scanner and a decent laser, unless you really need a standalone fax machine.
Don't get the 1300, it's a piece of junk. So that leaves you with either
the 2300 or 4200. But a much better buy is the Samsung 2151N.

Or the Samsung 2152W, which has ethernet, wifi, and USB2 hispeed interfaces.
CDW.com is still selling them for under $400, which I think is an amazing
bargain. CDW must have some sweet deal with Samsung to be able to sell them
at that price. That's a workgroup printer at a personal printer price,
considering it has duplexing, network print server, 500pg legal tray, exp.
to 144M RAM dimm, decent duty cycle, Postscript3, PCL6.
 
A good used HP LJ 4000DTN or LJ 4050DTN. YOu should be able to get a good one
for around $700 or so. It give 17 page per minute. Good printers.
