I bought a cheap Brother laser printer 20 years ago, and it works great today. Just plug in the USB cable, and it works on a modern machine with no extra drivers or software. (It's old enough that it still also has a parallel port on it.)
I recently replaced the toner and drum with third-party ones, and they work fine - no vendor lock-in.
