The Phaser 800 series (850, 860, 8200)  does support duplex printing.  
The inks also don't tend to re-melt.  I don't know where you get your 
information, but truly the 340 was crap only because the design wasn't 
perfected yet and it wasted too much ink in the purge cycle (i.e. every 
time the printer was turned on).  There are many minor annoyances when 
they (solid ink printers) are broken, but they're not that expensive to 
fix.
