I have two Brother printers in-house, a HL-L2360D and a DCP7065DN.
The former is a standalone  printer, the latter is a multifunction
device. Both support duplex printin--important for saving trees!

The 2360D can be used without Brother's drivers by judicious selection
of drivers that CUPS offers. At the moment I forget which one it is 
that works well there. Haven't tried that with the 7065DN, as it also
needs "drivers" for the scanner that I doubt exist in FOSS-land.

Both work well  using Brother's Linux drivers. 

I'm sure there are other low-cost laser printers out there that work
with Linux but am not familiar with them.
