    The Good: Inexpensive; low print costs; excellent text print quality; fast prints; generous support terms; built-in networking and duplex in the 1720dn.

    The Bad: Minor cross-hatching in graphics prints.

    The Bottom Line: The Dell 1720dn offers fast prints and good print quality, making it an excellent mono laser printer for small offices or work groups.
