I've recently bought a Xerox Phaser 6125N, this has an Ethernet port as well as USB. Toner isn't cheap, and you need four, CMYK for a full set. This isn't a problem for me as I only do a very small amount of printing. It comes with a set of starter cartridges with enough toner for about 500 sheets, or about 2 years of printing at my normal rate. I got mine from ebuyer where it's currently available for £145 and am very pleased with the quality. It does a very passable photo print onto plain paper if the print is held at arms length. It's not what it's designed for I admit, but I was pleasantly surprised.
A full size black cartridge will supposedly last 2,000 pages and the CMY cartridges will do 1,000 pages. I got a free full size black cartridge included as part of a promotion, but I don't know if Xerox are still running this promo. Cartridges are about £27 each for CMY or £34 for black. This is a lot of money for a whole set, but you can pay more than that for inkjet cartidges and get a lot less capacity. It all depends on how much printing you do.
