  • Canon i-Sensys LBP7200Cdn
    Canon i-Sensys LBP7200Cdn review It's fast in colour and pretty cheap to run, but the LBP7200Cdn doesn't have the best print quality. It's noisy, too, which could make it hard to live with.

    Brother MFC-J6910DW
    Brother MFC-J6910DW review An A3 MFP that does almost everything. It's reasonably-priced and cheap to run, but print quality isn't a strong point

  • Epson BX925FWD
    Epson BX925FWD review It looks great, is cheap to run and performs reasonably well, but Epson's BX925FWD wouldn't be our first choice in the office.

  • Samsung ML-1865W
    Samsung ML-1865W review A compact, stylish printer that's simple to use and easy to live with, but high print costs mean we can only recommend it for light use.

  • Epson Stylus Photo PX660
    Epson Stylus Photo PX660 review It’s a great MFP for photo enthusiasts and is cheap to run, but the PX660 costs too much. We'd choose Canon's PIXMA MG5150.

    Samsung SCX-3205W review A good-looking and affordable MFP that's let down only by slightly high running costs

    Advent AWP10 Wireless Multifunction Inkjet Printer
    Advent AWP10 Wireless Multifunction Inkjet Printer review The AWP10 doesn't do anything exceptionally well, but it's a competent all-rounder – and great value if you don’t print high volumes.

  • HP Photosmart Premium C310
    HP Photosmart Premium C310 review There's a versatile printer at the heart of this MFP, but it's let down by its frustrating controls and nannying driver interfaces.

  • Canon PIXMA MG8150
    Canon PIXMA MG8150 review The MG8150 produces good prints and great scans, but it's very expensive to buy and run.

    Canon PIXMA MG5150
    Canon PIXMA MG5150 review At this price it's hard to fault the MG5150. If you don't need network sharing, look no further.

  • Brother HL-2270DW
    Brother HL-2270DW review We can't fully recommend it based on the consumable prices we've seen. However, if they drop significantly, we could well be upgrading it to an award.

  • OKI C310DN
    OKI C310DN review This is a swift and well-specified workgroup laser, but its colour prints aren't great, and their cost will add up in high-volume use
