Personally I just use a brother DCP L3550cdw, I can print 3000 pages of color content for just 100 € in consumables, and it works just fine on any OS.

Due to HP’s war on third-party ink and toner, I just can’t recommend them.

On that topic, I accidentally just bought b/w toner for 18k pages for 70 € yesterday (I thought it was for 6k pages). https://www.ebay.de/itm/194967229480
+1 for Brother laser printers. I have the MFC-L3710CW model and cannot recommend it enough.
I bought third-party toner that came with a faulty chip, transplanted an original brother chip to it, and used the reset menu (open the printer to gain toner access, hold ← and X for 2 seconds, press ←, select which toner chip to reset as if it was full) and now it's working fine :)
Good to know if I ever need another printer, thanks.
