I don't know what your network is like, but we have a HP LaserJet 2000
on our unix network as the main printout device.  This is a high-speed
laser printer which handles a variety of jobs quite well.  It's
great for people with lots of code, but we also have it printing out
graphics, TeX, etc..  In our lab, that printer, plus a true PostScript
printer is adequate for all of our users.  It also save us from populating
the labs with smaller laser printers.

BTW, our labs is Sun, HP, SGI (30+ workstations/servers).
