Advantages: Cheap, Reliable and produces high quality prints Disadvantages: The odd paper jam
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 CanonLaserShotLBP 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.

Thanks you for looking at this product review, i hope you have found it interesting and useful.I have several more reviews to read on electtronics, computer/laptops and dvds / music cds. ...
Advantages: Cheap to buy (£60 at PC World) Cheap to run (Laser vs inkjet) Disadvantages: Less than very best quality. No usb cable in box.
I am setting up a home office, and already had an old Lexmark Z55 inkjet printer, but I needed new ink cartridges for it.
I went to PC World, and original cartridges for the Z55 would have cost £50 (1 colour and 1 B&W). O.E.M. cheaper (30%)
PCWORLD had the LaserShotLBP1120 on offer at £59.99 .
The decision to buy it was simple really.
I can expect at least 3 times the life of a laser cartridge vs inkjet, and OEM cartridge replacement is about £25.
Even if the printer is not brilliant, (the quality looks perfectly acceptable to me though) even if it breaks down, It is guaranteed for a year, so I am in credit.
This was a simple decision, mainly based on economics, and I will find out in the months to come, how reliable the printer is. ...
