Find The Right Inkjet Printers

Canon Pixma MX860

The Canon Pixma MX860's auto-document feeder, large LCD screen, and quick print speeds are sure to increase your productivity, but it also includes plenty of software to nourish your creative interests. At $199, this multifunctional printer earns our recommendation.

Specs: Fax, Copier, Printer, Scanner, Ink-jet, 2400 x 4800 dpi

Epson Artisan 800

The Epson Artisan 800 produces impressive color prints, photos, and text documents, and it outpaces the competition in almost all of our speed tests. We're impressed by its performance, but hesitate to recommend this printer based on the poor build quality and error-prone software.

Specs: Fax, Copier, Printer, Scanner, Ink-jet, 4800 dpi

HP Photosmart C8180 All-in-One

The C8180 multifunctional printer is an excellent choice for photo enthusiasts. It prints high-quality text and photos at a heavy price: the printer is s...l...o...w. If you always choose quality over speed, the c8180 will be a worthwhile addition to your digital toolshed.

Specs: Copier, Printer, Scanner, Ink-jet, 9600 dpi

The Epson PictureMate Dash printer is impressive in every way except for print quality.

HP Photosmart A826

The HP Photosmart A826 snapshot printer offers an attractive design, is easy and fun to use, and works better without a PC than any other snapshot printer we've reviewed thanks to its huge touch screen, but we wonder who will spend $250 for a dedicated photo printer.

Specs: Compact photo printer - Ink-jet - Color, 5.12 in x 7.1 in, Wired, 0.6 min/page, 0.9 min/page, 1.3 min/page, PC, Mac

HP Photosmart C4280

HP tries to offer the most basic users an inexpensive all-in-one with the Photosmart C4280 multifunction printer, but we find that for roughly the same price, you can get an all-in-one with more compelling features and better print quality.

Specs: Copier, Printer, Scanner, Ink-jet, 1200 dpi

HP Officejet Pro K5400

A single-function color inkjet, the HP Officejet Pro K5400 ably fills a small niche in the small- and medium-size office arenas. Low cost, fast prints, and high-quality text make this a great printer for offices on a budget who don't have high-volume printing needs but want the ability to print color graphics and photos.

PIXMA IP6310D PHOTO PR-10PPM/12PPM

The Pixma iP6310D has the print quality and the features that make it an attractive photo printer, but for just a bit more money, you can get an all-in-one printer from Canon that has better quality and faster speeds.

Specs: Photo printer - Ink-jet - Color, Legal (8.5 in x 14 in), Wired, PC, Mac, USB

Canon Pixma iP1700

The Canon Pixma iP1700 is a bargain of a printer, especially considering its impressive print quality.

Canon Pixma MP160

The entry-level Canon Pixma MP160 is a decent all-in-one printer for the price, but don't be tempted by the entry-level machine: the Pixma MP180 costs a mere $10 more and provides the same print quality and a ton more features.

Specs: Copier, Printer, Scanner, Ink-jet, 600 x 1200 dpi

HP Photosmart 3310 All-in-One

Specs: Copier, Printer, Scanner, Ink-jet, 600 x 1200 dpi

HP OfficeJet 4215 All-in-One

With a bargain-basement price, the HP OfficeJet 4215 is a multitalented, multifunction printer for the home or the office.

X6170 All-in-One

The Lexmark X6170 adds a document feeder to standard home-office multifunction capabilities, but the device's sluggish printing speeds could slow you down.

Specs: Fax, Copier, Printer, Scanner, Ink-jet, 1200 x 4800 dpi

HP Deskjet 6122

This Deskjet seems like the ideal SOHO inkjet, but its crummy print quality and high ink costs negate its low price.
