Pros: Fast printing speed, Good print quality, Duplex function, Small footprint, Inexpensive toner
Cons: Loud, Wireless networking can be hard to set-up

Gone are the days when you need to stay at one place when printing a large batch of school or work files. With the Brother HL-2270DW, you can wirelessly print your day-to-day documents without breaking the bank. Wireless networking can be tricky for non-techies, though, so we suggest reading the manual carefully. Also, it cannot connect via an Ethernet and wireless connection simultaneously. You must only pick one. Those who use a router which supports Wi-Fi Protected Setup or AOSS, on the other hand, can set-up their printer by simply pressing a button on the router. The print quality is actually good, especially for the price and size, and the unit's small form factor makes it ideal for clearing up space. Speed is also not issue as initial printing can only take less than 8.5 seconds and then after that, it can print at a rate of up to 27 ppm. It even supports up to 2400 x 600 dpi resolution and has an automatic duplex function which allows it to produce two-sided documents like brochures and pamphlets without any hassle. In addition to printing on letter or legal size paper, you can print on envelopes through the manual feed slot. Printed documents exit at the back of the unit to prevent crumpling and the paper tray is capable of holding up to 250 sheets of standard paper. The Brother HL-2270DW, like most laser printers, can be loud when in operation but its practicality makes up for the noise it creates. There is even a Toner Save mode which yields greater savings when printing low-priority documents. Compact but reliable, this laser printer from Brother is a perfect, low cost option if you only print text and two-sided documents, and you don't want to pay a little extra for features that you probably won't use or need.

Pros: Fast, Excellent print quality, Superb wireless capability
Cons: No LCD display, Loud, Can't use Ethernet and Wi-Fi simultaneously

Outstanding print quality and superb wireless capability are two of the Brother HL-5370DW's noteworthy traits. It can print as fast as 32 pages per minute and its duplex printing feature helps you save money and paper by letting you print high quality brochures and other types of documents on both sides of the paper. Printing the first page takes less than 8.5 seconds and the free Brother iPrint&Scan application allows you to print both your JPEG & PDF files straight from your Android, Windows Phone 7 and Apple devices such as iPhone and iPad. Like most laser printers, this particular model is a little on the loud side. It also doesn't have an LCD display and set-up can be a little tricky. Although it is integrated with wireless 802.11b/g, networking options are still limited. You need to choose between using Ethernet or Wi-Fi as it doesn't allow you to use both simultaneously. On a positive note, users of SecureEasySetup, AOSS or Wi-Fi Protected Setup capable routers can easily configure their wireless settings by simply pushing a button. Boasting a 1200 x 1200 dpi resolution, this laser printer ensures great-looking images and professional quality documents. It works great for its intended purpose and is recommended for anyone who wants a fast and reliable printer for their home or small office. It also supports Windows, Mac OS and Linux operating systems and has a 250-sheet paper tray that can accommodate A4, A5, A6, B5, B6, Executive, letter or legal size paper sizes and a multi-purpose tray that can hold up to 50 sheets and handle other paper sizes as well as envelopes. In conclusion, the Brother HL-5370DW is neither the smallest nor the slimmest laser printer we've come across but even with these few drawbacks, its long list of features and ease of use make it a great buy.

Pros: Fast, Easy to set-up, Excellent wireless networking capabilities, Advanced duplex printing and scanning
Cons: Heavy, Crumpling issues with envelopes

A multifunction printer has been almost a stationary machine in offices and even in homes. With its excellent wireless networking capabilities and tons of features, the Brother MFC-8890DW is one of the best all-in-one printers you can find at this price point. It is almost neck-and-neck, in terms of features, with more expensive models, especially with the inclusion of advanced duplex printing and scanning and a USB slot on the front panel that lets you print from your flash drive or save PDF files. The auto document feeder can hold a maximum of 50 sheets of up to legal size paper. You can also download Brother's iPrint&Scan app which permits easy, wireless printing from your Windows 7, Apple and Android devices. In addition to its built-in 802.11b/g wireless interface, an Ethernet connection is likewise supported. The MFC-8890DW can print and copy up to 32ppm black, scan with a maximum reslution of up to 600 x 2400 dpi and send a fax as fast as 2 seconds per page. The main paper tray can handle up to 250 sheets and the multi-purpose tray has 50-sheet capacity. In case you need more, you can purchase an optional 250-sheet paper tray. A high yield replacement toner cartridge is also available for greater savings. On a minor note, some users reported some crumpling issues when printing on envelopes. But if you print mostly on standard paper, this shouldn't be a drawback. Notwithstanding the fact that the Brother MFC-8890DW is heavy and enormous in size, it is an excellent workhorse. It is capable of handling high-volume and it is designed to boost productivity on your office.

Pros: Economical per page cost of printing, Small and space-saving size, Wireless printing capability, Energy-saving, Easy software setup
Cons: Basic features, No advanced options aside from wireless, Software included on printer disk is outdated

In this age of complex multifunction inkjet printers, the simple laser printer may seem like holdovers from an earlier, less advanced time. However, the ability of laser printers to produce quality pages at a fraction of the cost of inkjet printers, plus recent innovations which let them print in color have allowed them to continue on in the market instead of being consigned to the dustbins of office equipment history. For example, take the HP LaserJet Pro CP1025nw Color Laser Printer, whose biggest strengths are its economical per page cost of printing, its small size which saves desk space, wireless printing capability and a painless software setup that is impressively bloatware-free. The CP1025nw leaves off the advanced functionality in favor of better performance, as it doesn't offer advanced features like PC-free printing from storage media or even an auto document feeder. It is, however, a basic laser printer with 17 ppm for text and 4 ppm for color printing speeds. The print quality is standard HP goodness. That being said, it does tend to lean towards darker shades when printing color images, so a minor amount of tweaking is needed through the software controls. Users will also be glad to know that this printer is quite an energy saver as it has an automatic shutoff function. The HP LaserJet Pro CP1025nw uses either a USB, Ethernet or an 802.11b/g/n compatible wireless connection for fast and easy sharing between multiple computers. On a minor note, if this printer is to be set up to use multiple connections, it's recommended to install wireless first before connecting it via USB. It works with most operating systems but it's better to download the updated drivers from the HP website for full functionality.

Pros: Excellent construction, Touch screen, Supports automatic duplex printing and scanning, Flexible connection options, Good Photo Printing
Cons: Loud, Large, Page curling issues

In these modern times, it's no longer enough to have a printer. The more functional and advanced your printer, the better. With wireless functionality becoming more popular, a wireless printer like the Brother MFC-9970CDW is the natural choice. The 5" Color Touch Screen Display makes it so much easier to navigate, and printing speed reaches a maximum of up to 30 pages per minute in both color and black. The same output can be expected when copying documents. Whether you want to use an Ethernet or USB connection or you're looking forward to doing all your daily tasks like printing, scanning and sending faxes without the need for wires, this color laser all-in-one offers instant set-up. Users of Apple, Android or Windows Phone 7 smartphones and mobile devices can download the free Brother iPrint&Scan app for hassle-free, wireless printing. Adding to the long-list of advanced features of the Brother MFC-9970CDW is its support for automatic two-sided printing and scanning. The auto document feeder has a 50-page capacity and it accepts up to legal-size documents. For scanning a single page, a legal size document glass is available for use. The 33.6 Kbps fax modem allows you to receive and send faxes instantaneously, regardless if it's in black and white or color. Photo printing with the MFC-9970CDW is not comparable to dedicated photo printers but is quite good and acceptable. Likewise, owners or operators of large businesses can purchase high yield replacement toner cartridges to save on ink costs. In times when you don't want to open your PC or laptop and wait for it to load, you can connect your flash drive directly to this printer's USB port and print and scan from and to your device. Capable of doing the job of multiple office equipment in a single unit, the Brother MFC-9970CDW meets the expectations of even the most demanding users. If you're wondering what the possible trade-offs are for such quality and performance, the answer is the admittedly large form factor of the printer itself. The unit sits 20.9" high, 20.7" deep and 19.3" wide, requiring a considerable amount of space. In addition, it does emit a loud noise when warming up, as well as some page curling issues experienced by some users.

Pros: Easy to set-up, Supports both wired and Wireless network printing, Individual ink cartridges
Cons: No USB cable included, Auto document feeder can hold only 30 pages, Some plastic parts seem flimsy

Although a laser printer can print documents and photos faster and with higher level of quality, inkjet printers have a lot of advantages over lasers. For example, they are much smaller, less expensive and quieter. The Epson WorkForce 545, an all-in-one inkjet printer, is one good example. It does the four basic functions quite well and is ideal for home-, school- or office-use or those who don't demand professional quality results. Print quality is average and good for normal or basic tasks, but may not be sufficient for printing photos. Speed, however, makes up for it. With ISO Print Speeds of 15.0 ppm black and 7.2 ppm color, it is, in fact, considered as one of the world's fastest all-in-one. Wireless printing is also a key feature of the WorkForce 545. No need to be confined to your desk while waiting for those pages to print. You can print from anywhere in your home using almost any mobile device including smartphones and tablets via Epson's iPrint app. Apple's AirPrint and Google's Cloud Print are likewise supported. You can also go wired by purchasing a USB cable. There's a 250-sheet paper tray and a 30-page Auto Document Feeder. We would have liked it more if the paper tray is not made of plastic material and if the ADF has a larger capacity, though. As for faxing, you can send fax messages straight from your PC at a speed of up to 3 sec per page. Fax memory can store up to 180 pages and there's also a speed dial that can hold 60 numbers. Aside from being energy-saving, the Epson WorkForce 545 utilizes a 4-color DURABrite Ultra pigment ink that yields more savings and produces smudge, fade and water resistant prints. The small form factor also means that it doesn't have to compete for the small space on your workstation. Finally, a 2.5" LCD is embedded into the unit for easy editing and quick preview as well as a front USB port for inserting your thumb drive.

Pros: Wireless, Large touchscreen display, Quiet, Easy to set-up, Smaller footprint compared to other multifunction printers
Cons: No Ethernet and USB port, Free eFax service only permits up to 20 pages a month

The HP Photosmart 7510 offers a new level of convenience by combining wireless connectivity with touchscreen functionality. There's no need to use your computer, you can print, scan and copy documents directly from your iPad, iPhone or iPod touch via AirPrint or from your other mobile devices through HP ePrint. You can even do all these hands-free, thanks to its automatic document feeder. Faxing is likewise supported. The free eFax service enables you to send up to 20 pages per month without the need for a phone line. However, it may not be enough if you intend to use the fax function more. The unit also lacks a USB port which lets you print and scan from and to your thumb drives and an Ethernet port if you prefer a wired connection. On the other hand, the 7150 has memory card slots for direct and PC-free printing. It uses five individual inks which print documents with greater detail and clarity and help cut down on ink costs. You can also buy HP Photo Value Packs. Initial printing only takes 15 sec for black and 17 sec for color. After which, its printing speed goes up to 13.5 ppm black and 9 ppm color on normal quality mode and as fast as 34 ppm black, 33 ppm color and 16 sec for a 4 x 6 photo when on draft mode. Copy speed is rated at up to 34 cpm black and 33 cpm color and it scan 8.5 x 14 documents with up to 1200 dpi resolution. In terms of paper handling, it can hold 125 sheets in its input tray and 25 sheets in its photo tray. There's no envelope feeder but it has a 25-sheet Automatic Document Feeder and a 50-sheet output tray. The HP Photosmart 7510 also provides multiple OS support and WiFi 802.11b/g/n compatibility. Smaller than most all-in-one printers, it is likely the best choice if you want to save some desk space that you can use for your other devices or office equipment.
