Default Compact colour laser?

I'm possibly looking out for a compact colour laser printer and have
some requirements (sort of in order of importance).

1) Reasonably compact, height being the least important.

2) No 'sticky out' paper input or output trays or guides (to get
kicked off, as the printer will be on the bottom shelf of one of those
metal PC workstations).

3) Networkable (WiFi at least).

4) Reliable.

5) Reasonably cheap replacement carts.


I wanted a small laser last year and got one of the B&W Samsung M2026,
which is small enough to lift onto the top shelf when not required and
fetch down to the desk when required.

I noticed pcworld had the Samsung C430W colour laser for under £100 last
week and was nearly tempted to buy one, it's not too much bigger than
the mono one (mainly taller due to having an internal paper tray rather
than sticky-out paper shelf) but I dithered and now the price is back to
£130.

I do have a gigantic Epson duplex, postscript, dual bin, networked laser
but it really doesn't deserve the space it (and the consumables I have
for it) eats in the back bedroom.

Samsung printers are HP now.


Love my HP laserjet M252n

wasnt too expensicve.
On its second set of cartrdges now
