Mono printing is more cost-efficient, and one good model to consider is the Brother DCP-1400 MFC monochrome laser printer. No fax, but can print, scan and copy with just a click or press from its user-friendly control panel. It doesn't just look heavy, cause it is indeed, weighing 17kg and measures (W D H) 19.4 x 18 x 16.8 inches. It offers a decent paper input capacity of 250 sheets which can be maxed at 500 sheets when you buy the optional tray. There's also a 50-page ADF (automatic document feeder), and topped with a flatbed scanner.

The Brother DCP-1400 printer can be equipped with either the TN430 standard-yield toner or the TN460 high-yield toner, plus the DR400 laser drum unit with 20,000 page capacity. The printer is rated at 15 ppm (pages per minute), the same rating for its copy functionality. In terms of output quality, you can get reliably clear and sharp text prints at 600 x 600 dpi resolution. Rounding it up, you'll get a mono laser printer for light-duty printing suitable for small office needs.
