Look at the price of the ink cartridges over the actual printer, lots of cheap printers out there with higher than gold ink prices. Also look at the application of your work, a cheap inkjet is OK but is the ink fade resistant, archival etc depending on the price point of your work and expected lifetime of the piece.
Other than that, I favour Canon - go forever, my BF uses HP. Not found a laser in my budget that likes cardstock - so only used Dell and Oki but both are great workhorse printers.
