The HP MFP models are nice (not sure what is currently out there), but HP also makes a killing on cartridges, so do not buy from them. As Drew mentioned, they have a chip on them that is intentionally burnt out at the "low toner" mark, which can be bypassed, but is a PITA should you decide to refill yourself (I would not recommend this anyway). Refillers replace that chip when they refill toner.
If you search for a HP cartridge, find its official name and then google it... many vendors sell refilled "X model replacements" for roughly 20% of what HP charges. I think I got mine from Cartridge America. Before buying something research the model, and the replacement cartridge costs from such a vendor.
I have had a Laserjet M1217nfw MFP for 6 years, and spent a couple cartridges thus far on probably 15 reams of paper (just installed the third cartridge). HP has carried the "industry standard" in printers for a long time now, so that brand is best to look at first (just don't sign up for all the hype). Inkjets can also not "just sit" since the ink dries out even if not used (or used to), which is a terrible waste of money.
The feature I appreciate most with it is that it prints the first page in about 5 seconds, and is like 20 pages per minute after that. I thought the glow rod would go on it because of that feature, but it is still kicking. The flatbed capability came through in an unthought of way for me last year... I scanned chunks of full sized (18" x 24") blue prints I could not replace and pieced them together in Photoshop and worked like a charm. Can print from a cell to it, yada, yada, so is pretty feature rich for the low cost/longevity of it.
