I know HP has a new(er) color laser out, which here in CA runs $400 at
Costco. I doubt it does duplex, but my experience with HP has always
been good, and CUPS/GIMP (gimpprint/gutenprint/whatever) have supported
HP pretty darned well. AFAIK it (like others they sell) can stand
alone on a network with an additional card add-on.
Sorry I don't know the model number...
