This was bought from eBay for a very reasonable 19UKP ($33 US), refurbished with an almost-full toner cartridge and all cables. It's a more up-to-date and compact model than the better-known 4P, but does lack the LED status screen and a few other bells and whistles.
Setup was an absolute breeze using CUPS - I simply follwed the prompts, used the cups+gimp-print driver and it worked first time. Print quality is excellent and reasonably fast, and overall I'm very well pleased especially given the price!
If you need a simple, reliable, easy to use text printer the 5P is hard to fault.
