Whilst talking to a friend a few months back, I mentioned I needed to buy a new printer as my old one had ceased working. My friend recommended the Canon Laser Shot LBP 2900 Printer, As that is what he had been using and said it was reasonably cheap to buy and did a good job. So the next day I went onto Amazon, Paid my £54.50 and waited for it to arrive.

Upon its arrival, I promptly went about setting it up, Now I was impressed it was small and compact and looked stylish with its monochrome finish.

For £54.50 for a reliable laser printer I thought great and thanked my friend for his recommendation. However, There was one minor problem, Now and then the paper gets jammed, This has happened with every printer I have ever used at sometime though, So I don't really see it as a big deal.

The LBP 2900 produces high quality professional laser prints and it does it quickly and it is the quietest printer I have ever heard. It is extremely easy and simple to use and understand and makes the perfect home office or family use printer. It delivers consistently high quality prints and there is no warm-up time and no waiting for prints to start.
