Depends on how much you want to spend, what performance you need and if you need color. If you have modest performance needs and no need for color, I can recommend HP Laserjet 6L or something such. I have on of those and it works really great in Linux (magicfilter with the ljet4-filter). It prints about 6 pages/minute. It's maintenance need are virtually zero (wipe the dust off from time to time), no powerswith (goes to power save mode after >10min of idle time), No problems with paperjam or such (I've had mine for a year soon and have printed 2000+ pages (It's great to have those HOWTOS on paper :) ) with no problems whatsoever). It comes with 1MB memory, upgradable to 9M. Resolution: 600dpi. According to the docs, the average lifetime of the toner casette is around 2500 pages. (And by the way, it works with WinXX too...) I'm sure other will come with good suggestions too, and I hope you will find a printer that suits you needs.
