Printer recommendations

I need to buy a small MFP for our new nursery, and I really want to make sure I don't buy a pup (*shakes fist at Samsung*).

 

At the moment I have shortlisted the following:

 

Epson WorkForce Pro WF-5620DWF

HP PageWidw Pro 477dw

HP OfficeJet Enterprise Pro X585f

Ricoh SP C252SP

 

They will be printing around 800-1000 pages per month up there.

 

What are people's thoughts? Any of the above make you go "nooooo"?

I've been impressed with what I've read and seen of the HP Pagewide so far but haven't had my paws on one to test in real life but its on our list when our MFPs come for renewal as HP offer them as a fully serviced MFP solution and they claim they are cheaper than a traditional MFP, however being ink based they will suffer the usual issues with getting wet and not as crisp as a laser if your totally nit-picky.

Wow that thing is expensive to run! £173 for a set of 1k toners! The WorkForce Pro WF-5620 I listed earlier is £156 for 4k inks.
