Slick, very user-friendly and high in quality, the Canon Pixma MP540 is on the whole a superb printer. It’s perhaps not quite as fast as we’d like but, otherwise, it’s a very good model.

The PIXMA MP630 is little more than a refresh of the MP610 with no changes other than slower print times. While it still has some merit, this unit isn't up to the regular Canon quality level.

The CM3530fs is a decent candidate for small to medium offices, offering good remote administration options and an integrated print server.

The imageCLASS MF4380dn is a decent multifunction for small businesses, with fast print speeds and good print quality. There are some small issues with its design and local scanning, but overall this multifunction is adequate.

Though the TX700W offers a lot of functionality and connectivity, it is ultimately let down by poor quality. This multifunction performs acceptably for a simple text printer, but there are better options in the same price range.

Though the TX800FW isn’t the best photo printer on the market, it is one of the most feature-packed and it has an unusual design. There are some minor issues but it remains a standout multifunction.

The Canon Pixma MP620 delivers a wide variety of features in a well-designed package. Its connectivity and generous paper handling make it particularly well suited for families or students.

The C6380 one-ups the C5380 in almost all respects, with its only failing being a slight decrease in photo print quality. Overall, the 6380 is a great addition to the networked home.

The C4580 continues HP's trend of improving the quality of its low-end inkjets. Though there's still room for improvement, the C4580 is good value for money.

The Photosmart C5380 is HP’s first low-priced multifunction to provide truly competitive print quality without much being sacrificed.

The Colour LaserJet CM1312nfi packs in a decent number of features for a low asking price, but significant drawbacks ultimately make it uninspiring. This is a jack of all trades and master of none.
