Advantages: Very good value. Small Footprint. Long lasting Ink Cartridge. Disadvantages: Print quality may not be sufficient in a few cases
I picked this laser printer up from PC World for about £100 and overall have been very impressed. The printer connects through a USB cable and set up is very simple for both Windows and Apple Mac computers. There are a lot of positives with this printer. Firstly it offers very good value for money. It does everything the average home user will want for a very affordable price. The print quality is good and perfect for everyday printing of letters, ... ...which is a particularly useful feature. This requires you to place the half printed copies back into the feeder rather than doing this automatically. This isn't really much of a problem, especially for the asking price. The printer also works well with transparencies. It comes with a ink cartridge which has lasted me at least a year of regular home use.

Advantages: Speed, print quality, paper handling Disadvantages: Not the cheapest cartridges
Brought this on impulse when visiting my local PCworld store, I was feed up with my samsung laser printer and its paper feed problems, and can only say how impressed I've been.
Paper feed is great using a range of papers and light card, even works well on transparencies.

Advantages: Excellent printing, quick, easy to install Disadvantages: None
Having had an inkjet printer for 5 years, I decided to buy this printer to replace it, £95 seemed really cheap from Dabs and it arrived the next day.
The first thing that struck me was how well packed and made the printer was, everything seemed to be very firm and the waulity seemed excceptionally high. The only annoying thing was that a USB cable is not included, which I think is rather stingy as thats the only way to print to this.
Anyway, setup ... ...and run the excellent install software then plug the printer in - all done. Next my mac, which is usually a pain for printer installation, not with this one, same process as PC and working in a few seconds.
The printing speed is very fast and quality is excellent, the cartridges do appear to be expensive, but you get so many prints out of them, the cost per print is far lower than inkjet printers, although naturally it is only black and white.
