Cheap b/w laser printer that does auto duplex?

Having spent hours researching and googling I am none the wiser and have determined that the whole area of laser printers is a minefield.

Thought I was onto a winner on the Dell website only to find out that they rebadge Lexmark products, add on a hefty markup and that the page output seems to drop between toner replacements for some reason compared to the original manufacturers identical product. Have looked at the Lexmark E350D and Brother HL5340D as well but still open to suggestions.

Budget - around the 150 quid mark

Toner - I want to use up some refill bottles so I really want to avoid nasty "chips" and other nasty tricks that the manufacturers use to ensure you buy their overinflated toner cartridges.

Usage - not a very high user at all, just the usual home office type of thing

Duplex - auto

Paper feed - can take A5, A4 and all the usual envelopes etc which I am sure most do anyways

So any thoughts and experiences? Cheers in advance.
