Could do with colour tbh, though photos I'll get done properly.

Even their A3 printers are cheap, even if you never after an A3.
I've had trouble with the really low end brothers before, but I think that was more end user abuse with the feeder tray playing up, they were the JCW series. I would probably go for an MFC Series.
I'm personally a big fan of Brother Inkjet and Lasers (when not a serious amount of yearly cylcle), easy to setup, great functionality as standard, duplex, networking etc and the software/drivers are simple and clean. Unlike HP's photosmart suite.
Anything more serious I go OKI, IE 50,000 + Pages a year.
Samsung A4 Lasers are not bad either.
