Laser Printers

Oki C3600

The Oki C3600 isn't packed with features and it's not the smallest or lightest colour laser printer we've come across. But it compensates for that by producing high-quality prints at a swift rate, making it one of the best machines of its type on the market

Samsung ML-1630

The Samsung ML-1630 is the first real attempt at making printers look sexy. Its sleek, piano-black finish, gorgeous blue lights and split-level design make it into one of the most attractive printers we've seen. With touch-sensitive buttons completing the package, you've got yourself one sleek machine

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

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

Editor's rating 8.2

Dell 1815dn

The 1815dn is quite a deal, considering it prints (in monochrome), scans, faxes and copies, comes with a built-in duplexer, is network ready, and prints black text at nearly 18 pages per minute. It even has a built-in USB port for scanning to or printing from a USB flash drive

Lexmark C500n Color Laser Printer

The Lexmark C500n is a basic, single-function colour laser printer geared for small offices and home offices. At £250, it seems expensive for a single-function machine, but the C500n's fast print speeds and network-readiness make it a good addition for offices that have high-volume text printing needs

Dell Laser Printer 1100

If you've complained for years that laser printers cost a fortune and inkjet cartridges gnaw a hole in your pocket, the Dell Laser Printer 1100 might attract you. This streamlined, low-slung white machine is available from Dell for £81

HP Color LaserJet 2600n

The HP Color LaserJet 2600n features built-in Ethernet networkability, is simple to use and the quality of most of its print samples impressed us. However, its slow performance on some tasks and its potentially high postpurchase costs mean the 2600n best fits small and patient workgroups and home offices
