i am very happy with the Samsung CLP-315W that i bought last year.
wireless is pretty fantastic, the less cables the better!

i found a pretty good deal on newegg for an open box, if my memory serves me...

NOTE: using it in linux took a small amount of work (following
instructions), and last time i compared, it did print a bit better
from windows (as of last year).
