Title: Wireless Laser Pritner
Post by: Mark on October 14, 2013, 04:58:24 PM
Can anyone recommend a wireless laser printer/copy/scan for use at home, mapping back to terminal server?  Currently using a 1200 through a print server and it's worked for a while but recently been flaky.  Would rather just do it right and cut out the print server and have something actually supported by Server 2008 R2.  I know scan will only work locally without remote scan and that's fine.

The Okidata MC561 MFP has some certification http://community.citrix.com/citrixready/product/oki+data+mc561+mfp.

I don't know if that helps any, but I have two of those on site, no terminal server usage, but nice full featured machines and not terribly large for home usage.

I am currently looking at an HP LaserJet Pro M1217nfw, however we have a couple 1212nf's and they do NOT recognize blue ink when scanning in black and white.  :-\

I have owned a Brother Printer MFC7860DW for about five months, and it has been great. Stellar performance, and a very low cost. Bang for the buck rating is very high.

I have the same or similar at home, but we like to stick with HP here.  I ordered the M1217nfw and it got here today.

The problem with the Brothers (if you see it as a problem) is that you can generally buy an entire new printer for what the toner carts go for.

Well, ordering from Amazon we generally pay between $35-$45 I believe,  However, Amanda picked one up at the store recently and it was insanely expensive!  So, I know what you're saying.
