Please Help me Find a Laser Printer with Vista 64 support

As the title of the thread says, can you guys please help me find a laser printer with Vista 64 support...(scratch that "support"). I should have said, confirmed to work, because my HP not only doesn't work with Vista 64, but it also doesn't work with Vista 32, which HP said it would at the very least.

Im not looking to spend that much money, anything < $150 would be great.
Monochrome Laser printer with confirmed Vista 64 support around that price range...there has to be at least one...

Take a look at the brother site, I have and use the HL 2070 N (network
version) but they have Vista drivers.

Thanks!
Just bought one from OfficeMax.
It was on sale for $99, and was too hard to pass up, especially seeing as how a few people on various sites by now (including you) have vouched for its' Vista 64 support.

Re: Please Help me Find a Laser Printer with Vista 64 support

Presumably, you have tried the Vista 64bit drivers from the HP website?

There's also the Samsung ML-2010 which support Vista x64 but I bought the Brother HL-2070n because it has built-in network support which is quite good for a printer of this price. Also, the Brother is PCL6 compatible which is great because it mean that you can find a driver for almost any OS as long as there's a PCL6 driver available for your OS.

I just went throught two HP inkjet network printers that were supposed
to work with Vista 64bit. I returned both of them!

I was looking at a Samsung CLP-300 Colour and happened on a sale ($179
Cdn) that I could not refuse. It was easy to set up. I did not bother
with the CDs, I downloaded and installed the latest drivers. It
worked great right from the start. I also tested it with Excel 2007
spreadsheets and it printed exactly what I saw on the print preview.

I saw another Samsung printer which looked very similar and same price
range but was monochrome and had a built in colour scanner - SCX 4200.
It also has the Vista scanner and printer driver.
