	Isn't the 4050 a color laser? I also remember it was slow and ugly and 
sometimes messy. Toner should be cheap these days.

	I recommend color lasers from Tektronix or Xerox. I always recommend 
used laser printers for home use. Then again, I can't remember ever 
buying a new laser printer for home use. Goodwill used to have decent 
printers. Sometimes you can get lucky at work when they retire printers 
(thanks Bob and Gary!).

	HP 8000DN - awesome tabloid duplex printing, pimped
	Tektronix Phaser 560 - awesome color laser, okay color
	Tektronix Phaser 740 - Best color printing possible is with wax

	Any network-capable Postscript printer is going to rock your world. 
More modern printers may have better power-management, and may even be 
silent - mine are not silent.

	I wonder if I should bother adding the 5000-sheet feeder and 
staple/sorter attachments to the 8000...
