Epson Stylus D120

Although multifunction devices seem to be all the rage these days, there's still room for low-cost single-function printers designed to do one thing well -- print. The Epson Stylus D120 falls into this category, delivering above average, durable prints and documents

Canon Pixma iP2600

Canon's inkjet photo printer for users on a budget, the Pixma iP2600 lacks a PictBridge port and a memory card slot, but makes up for it with a sleek design, competitive print speeds and bold, crisp prints. It's a cost-effective printer for text and amateur photo printing

Anyone who is frustrated with the high cost of printer cartridges will appreciate the Kodak EasyShare 5300's affordable consumables -- its speed and print quality are pretty impressive, too

Lexmark Z1420

The key feature of this inexpensive colour printer is its ability to print wirelessly out of the box -- surprising for an entry-level inkjet and a boon for homes with multiple users. It prints quickly for a machine in this price range, too

Canon Pixma iP90v

The Canon Pixma iP90v is a compact printer, small enough to slip into a laptop bag, for printing from practically anywhere. It's pretty pricey, especially with the add-ons, but if you simply must have a tiny inkjet, you'll be pleased with its print speeds and quality

Lexmark Z845

The Lexmark Z845 is a basic A3 colour printer. Whether printing text, graphics or photos, the print speeds and quality are good but not great -- about what you'd expect from a £60 printer

Lexmark E352dn

The Lexmark E350 series fits the bill for a home user or a student who needs to crank out lots of text prints, and being a part of the company's ecofriendly line of printers, it's also a greener choice. It's very compact for a mono laser printer, and weighing in at a mere 11.3kg, it's not too heavy either

Lexmark C530dn

A fast, high-quality colour laser printer with a built-in duplexer for automatic double-sided printing, the C530dn and its siblings, the C532n and C532dn, offer reduced power consumption and material waste -- which benefits both your bank balance and the environment

Canon Selphy ES1

When it comes to bright and vibrant colours there's little to touch the Canon Selphy ES1 at the moment. It takes just over a minute to produce a postcard-sized image -- not bad at all, especially when you see the quality. There's plenty of detail and blacks, and contrast levels are impressive

Epson PictureMate 240

Epson's compact inkjet photo-printer offers impressive print speeds and a good range of photo enhancement features. Users can manually adjust settings such as sharpness, brightness and saturation, add frames, correct red eye and crop photos directly on the printer

Samsung CLP-300

Samsung's CLP-300's tiny dimensions are impressive -- it's touted as the smallest colour laser printer in the world. Its feature set will not satisfy those looking to print large amounts, nor will the quality please designers or those with an eye for detail, but if you're looking for an affordable colour laser for light home use, this is ideal

Samsung ML-3051ND

The Samsung ML-3051ND straddles the gap between an über-expensive office laser printer and a personal laser printer, both in terms of features and price. For around £250, you get a network-ready mono printer with versatile paper-handling options, expandable memory, a built-in duplexer and high-quality prints

Dell Colour Laser Printer 3110cn

Aimed primarily at small to mid-sized workgroups, the £270 3110cn promises ease of use, low maintenance, low running costs and plenty of upgrading flexibility. It won't win any design awards, but it's built to keep going and with its networking ability it should appeal to a wide range of users
