I can report on 2 Postscript duplexing networking laser printers.
I have a Lexmark E260dn installed, and I have a lot of experience with a
Brother HL-5250dn (I do taxes as a volunteer for the AARP Foundation).
The 2 printers are very similar in function and operations. Both have a
browser based interface for setting up the printer and checking on the
status. Both are duplex capable and print about 25-30 pages a minute.
Both have a toner cartridge that is separate from the drum unit. Both
can be used from eCS by running the PPD import function. The Lexmark
has a separate envelope feed that the Brother does not. Amazon lists
the Brother at $149.95 w/shipping. You should also be able to find the
Lexmark for under $200. The Brother has a USB and RJ45 port, while the
Lexmark also has the old parallel port as well.
One note: I have not been able to duplex from eCS to either printer.
