Dell V715w All-in-One Wireless Printer is a flagship model of the company that helps reduce the environmental footprint with integrated Eco Mode button which dims the 2.4 inch LCD screen. It also enables dual sided printing with the help of automatic document 50-sheet feeder. The Dell V715w provides standard and wide array of copy, print, scan and fax features with 50-sheet automatic document feeder and Eco Mode function. The V715w also shows a bulky design and some physical flaws with frustration like expensive ink cartridges, frequent paper jams and unreliable wireless connectivity. However, there are plenty of models in the market such as Lexmark Prevail Pro705 that offers much easier installation process, five-year warranty and high quality image output.

Dell P513W is an all in one multifunction printer that helps the environment, outputs professional quality text prints and comes with handy Eco Mode. It is a multifunction printer that generates adequate prints, but the spotty wireless service, cheap build and quick depleting cartridges aren’t worth the $150. It earns good points for environmental friendliness, but doesn’t come with any auto document feeder, frequent paper jams and spotty wireless coverage. It measures 18.8 inches wide, 9 inches tall, 13.3 inches deep and weighs 15.3 pounds. On the top of the printer, there is a flatbed scanner and has the ability to handle up to 1200 x 2400 dpi resolution, a standard feature on all multifunction printers.
On the other hand, the Dell [...]

There has been significant drop in the prices of business printers in past couple of years, and as a result of that there are plenty of fast workgroup color laser printers available in market for less than £400. The Dell 3130cn is one such offering from Dell, and the system promises to deliver speeds of about 30ppm.
The Dell 3130cn is a huge black printer, the size of the printer is so big that many of the customers will even wonder how they are going to accommodate this printer on their desks or offices. The primary reason for the humongous height of the system is the perpendicularly mounted, inline color laser engine within. The color engine of the printer comes with four cartridges, all of which have their own inbuilt, photo-conductive drum and the transfer [...]

The Dell 3110cn is an averagely performing mid-priced color laser printer home or small offices. Priced at $500, the 3110cn comes loaded with a rather basic feature set; if you go for add-ons such as a duplexer, the price of the printer will increase a bit. For that much money, we would go for the Lexmark C530dn, which has a fitted duplexer, improvements which makes it environmentally friendly; it delivers faster color prints and better print quality. Although, it’s the mono prints that puts the Dell behind its competition. Also, this particular Lexmark model doesn’t offer extended paper options, but the en suite paper handling should be enough for the home users.

The Dell 5230dn is the latest monochrome laser printer from Dell, and although the printer is a tad expensive (costs around $1000), but it does have all the features, speed and expandability that you need in a printer for a busy office or a medium-size workgroup. Some other respectable thing that works in the favor of Dell 5230dn is its excellent three-year limited warranty along with the next-business-day on-site service and its cheap toner. So on a whole the 5230dn is a respectable buy even for a long term.
The Dell 5230dn comes loaded with plethora of standard features, in addition to the expandability. The 5230dn supports about 350 pages of input paper combined for the chief and multi-use trays. Users are also allowed to add up to three 550 sheet drawers, which will cost you $250 each [...]

The Dell 1720dn is an affordably priced mono laser printer with the capability of delivering high-quality prints at decent speed. The mono laser printer is intended for small offices and workgroups and will meet their requirements perfectly. At $300, the 1720dn gets you Ethernet networking, built-in duplexer and most importantly low print costs. We got the same print quality from the Samsung ML-3051ND priced at $350 and offering quicker text prints and a little slower graphics prints, a straight pass-through and a 50-sheet multipurpose tray.
If you think that all these extras are worth spending $50 more, then go for it. Else, the Dell 1720dn is just the perfect option for its targeted audiences. Especially if the networking and duplex printing are not among your high priorities, then the [...]

Priced at $100 the Dell Photo All-in-One Printer 926 is a pretty affordable inkjet multifunction printer, which offers copy, print, e-fax and scan features. Seeing at the price we already were not expecting a lot from the printer, at least in terms of print quality and print speed. But the worst thing is that the printer even failed to match even our average expectations. Unexpectedly, even using Dell’s very own photo ink tanks and photo paper, the printer delivered really poor photo quality. On the contrary, if you look at Canon Pixma MP180, you will see that it’s possible to get decent quality prints even from a $100 multifunction. And if you don’t have problem, in putting just a little extra weight on your budget, you should get Canon Pixma MP460 priced at $130, it will make you even [...]

The Dell 1320c printer is an affordable option for the small work groups and businesses looking for a color laser printer. Priced at $300 the 1320c is a USB-only printer, which is slower than its rivals in black prints, but moves significantly fast on color prints.
Now its turn for that obvious “but” that you will find in most of our reviews, so here it is; “but” the printer has its own set of flaws and the print quality here clearly is not sufficient for most of the business uses. If you have to print tons of black text documents, its better that you go for the Lexmark C500n priced at $400, and if you need a better balance of print speed and color and black, then try the C3400n priced at $400 Oki. The Oki’s print quality is a tad better than Dell's quality as [...]

The Dell 1125 is among the very few printers who actually can be said as jack-of-all-trades. Our Dell Multifunction Monochrome Laser Printer 1125 actually is a black-and-white laser printer which at the same time can fax, copy and scan. Just as all the other multifunction mono-laser printers the Dell 1125 also targets the small-business users as its potential consumers. The small business owners who needs versatility and efficiency for their prints and hence they always looks for all-in-one printers which can prints documents at decent pace. And with the Dell 1125 offering 600 x 600 dpi printing, having an internal separate fax machine, a 24-bit color scanner and a 30-page automatic document feeder.
But the poor graphic print quality, pitiful low page-output toner with the printer are really [...]

Not many of the inexpensive printers connect wirelessly to your homes network, but the printer which we are reviewing here does connect and even isn’t priced heavily. It’s the Dell V305W we are talking about. This reasonably priced all-in-one printer costs $129 and acts as a solution to your multifunctional needs such as the 1200 x 2400 dpi scanner and a full range copier.
The initial price for the printer might be kept down by omitting the ADF (Auto Document Feeder) and the fax machine, but the running cost for the printer isn’t low at all and if you are buying it then keep it in mind that the printer eats a lot of ink and the alternate cartridges are soaring high priced. Apart from the expensive consumables the printer also disappoints in print quality and speed tests. So we will [...]
