Virtually any of the HP's with Postscript work fine, as long as you have or
can get a .ppd for it and it's real Postscript.  I have an old Color
LaserJet 8550DN that works like a champ.  Supplies are steep, but this is an
11x17 printer.

For monochrome duplex I'm still using an HP LJ 8000 with duplexer, and the
8150 with duplexer works well, too.  If you print enough monochrome, you'll
find that the 8K or 8150 are less expensive than the 8550 printing black.  All
three are 11x17 capable.

We've been using a Xerox Phaser 8560DN. Works just fine. The only complaint
- the ink is sort of expensive.

At home, I recently replaced an HP office jet with a Lexmark X543
multifunction printer/scanner/copier.  The C543 is print-only
version.  Getting it set up under MacOS X, Fedora and CentOS was a
snap.  I'm happy with it (I don't print enough to care about the cost
of toner).

Recently at work, I had to set up a new HP, and had a hard time
finding a Linux PPD, and our sysadmin had no more success.  I
ended up grabbing the OSX PPD and removing the Mac specific parts.

The office jet at home worked OK once I rebuilt the Fedora HPLIP RPMs
for CentOS, but HP's Mac drivers were flaky, and were never updated for
news OSX releases.
