+1 for Brother, perhaps the last manufacturer that used to allow
cheap 3rd-party supplies (I get 6K-page toner for <8€ and 12K-page
drums for even less), emphasis on 'used to'. So, if you can get your
hands on a used machine (most people won't sell them, but you may get
lucky if some company foolishly replaces them), get one and don't ever
update its firmware. Hell, it's even possible to downgrade a bad
firmware should you wish to.

Last year we got a brand-new MFC-L2800DW at work and aftermarket toner
worked right out of the box.
