Looking for combo cabinet and printer stand

I am having a hard time finding what I want in a certain piece of furniture for my home office. Can you help? I am looking for something like the cherry version of this or the brown version of this. But neither one is available. And the latter is a little smaller and less sturdy than I prefer.

My criteria:
* It needs to fit a printer (W x D x H) 16.4" x 19.8" x 10.0".
* I prefer enclosed space to open, and drawers over shelves.
* It needs to have at least one “pencil drawer” for basic office supplies.
* It needs to have a relatively nice appearance, such as wood laminate, with wood-looking appearance.
* If it’s wider than a typing stand, it needs to have at least one file drawer. (Because then it would replace both the current printer stand and a file cabinet.)

I could theoretically spend up to $900, but I’d like to spend much less.

Does the printer need to be on the interior of the piece, as in the first photo or can it sit on top?
Do you need to hide the power and USB/Ethernet cables ?

Response by poster: I expect the printer to go on top.

I am fine to run the power cable behind the stand/cabinet. I don't need anything special for that, or to hide it. I don't expect to need any other cables for the printer.

Response by poster: Also, in case it's not clear, I don't want it in black or white or anything other than plain wood finish or a facsimile of wood.

Can you take a different shade?

Response by poster: Thanks, but I don't want the espresso version. I'd like something in the vein of bamboo, cherry, maple, walnut, that type of thing.

Not sure of your location, but I would check a used office furniture place for something like this.

What about this?

It's cherry, more expensive than what you linked to, but much less than your $900 upper price range. Has 4 drawers, including two smaller drawers that could be used as pencil type drawer and file cabinet.

It's wide enough to fit your printer on top of it.

This one is smaller, but has 3 drawers, including pencil drawer. Dimensions may be cutting it close for the printer - the width is 16"
