Good quality prints from digital images in a PictBridge-compliant device. Ink and paper are not the cheapest however.

The Pixma iP4300 has it all: speed, impressive output quality, and a good price.

The Photosmart C5280's mediocre speed and sparse connectivity options restrict it to a small or home office. Those users, however, will enjoy a highly capable, easy-to-use device with excellent photo output.

The G610 keeps things simple for Kodak camera owners. While prints are inexpensive, output is merely adequate.

If it's compatible with your camera, the PictureMate is a good choice for affordable, top-quality snapshots.

The Brother DCP-350C gives slow but top-quality photo prints. Graphics are less impressive, but the Brother DCP-350C is a great scanner and provides so-so copying.

The Lexmark P915 is priced low and includes common features like media card slots and a color LCD, but they don't make up for the poor print quality and expensive consumables.

Small size and a low price make the HP LaserJet 1020 a good fit for a home office in which space is at a premium and occasional printing jobs don't require the utmost in speed, quality and economy.

The compact HP PSC 1610 is slower than average, but its extensive software and high-quality prints make it a great value.

Canon's LaserShot LBP-3000 runs quietly, quickly and offers acceptable print quality for work documents or assignments - provided you run Windows.

A great all-rounder for those on a budget.

Lexmark's execution is a little disappointing on the P310. We don't like its slow access time when reading memory cards, nor do we think the omission of an output tray is a good idea. We also don't like this unit's print quality and its high cost per page.
