Advantages: small, affordable
Disadvantages: low output

...to business ink-jet printers by Xerox and i wouldn't argue with that at the price that it is sold at. A colour laser printer that is small and manageable its one of many printers in my workplace and heps churn out the vast amounts of corporate information we provide. Its very easy to use and is compatible with your PC or your Mac. Output is quite low at 4 pages per minute in colour and16 per minute in black and white. At 2400 x 600 Image Quality ... Read review

Advantages: Cheap colour laser, compact, easy to set up and use
Disadvantages: Noisy, slow, toner refills too small and difficult to obtain

The 6110 printing quality is very good in both colour & b&w even in draft mode. The unit is compact and simple in design. The print speed in b&w is adequate for home use but might be a bit slow for business use. Colour is too slow for anything other than a few copies. The machine is very reasonably priced and compares favourably with other similar printers spech wise. Downside is the small paper tray (250 sheets) and no add on available. Initial ... Read review

Advantages: compact, fast, good quality prints, economical to run, good price
Disadvantages: start up noise (But I think this is the same with most laser printers)

We tried to buy a Magicolor 2400 but printerland.co.uk had sold out and offered this machine for only a very little more. We paid £175 (GBP) including VAT. My first print was an A4 colour photo onto budget 80 gsm office paper and the print quality was as good as our old HP inkjet and so much faster. The picture quality was good enough to frame and hang on the wall. Although maybe not as sharp as it might have been had it been professionally printed, ...
...It popped out in under 5 seconds - much faster than the manufacturer's specs. What we bought this for was to print brochures for my wife's business. It churns out good quality prints on 100gsm textured paper much cheaper than if we went to a printers - and it gives us the flexibility of changing the brochure regularly. My wife is very pleased with it. (A print run at a professional printers would have cost almost as much as the printer.) It comes ... Read review

Advantages: Excellent quick printing, photos just add icing on the cake
Disadvantages: Paper jams for drafts

...relatively quick speed (depending on settings). But beware of using draft prints as this for some reason causes the printer to jam or crumple through the process. Ink catridges suprisingly outlast any other inkjet I have owned. HP 56, 57, 58 are used in this machine. ... Read review

Advantages: Excellent text
Disadvantages: No letter tray!

...on my previous experience of Canon printers - I opted for a Pixima with FINE technology. I already have a very good photo printer in the shape of the Epson R800, and an Epson 830U which I use for rough drafts as it is on it's last legs. Fact is, I needed a printer to print decent quality letters and the odd mixed text and image sheet. I previously used an old Canon S520 but it finally gave up the ghost, and I have to say the i1800 - at about a quarter ...
...capable machine. It prints in various modes (high, standard, draft and custom) and in high quality mode, the text is as good as any printer I've seen. It's not fast though, so if you print a lot of text you may want to look at a laser. Printing tecxt over colour (a sample web page) was not so hot, but I don't really care! Photo printing is acceptable, though I didn't buy it for that purpose and only printed one quick pic to get an idea. I imagine ... Read review
