Easy to set up, small, quick enough

Windows only, 125-sheet feeder could be too small

Canon's LBP-5200 offers straightforward colour laser printing for a single machine or small workgroup. Unfortunately, you'll be struggling to get it to work with Mac OS or Linux

Bad

 

Disapointed in the running costs now that the printer is in use. Might be a worthwile purchase if you don't need to print high volumes, but would not recommend if you print more than 100+ pages per week.
