Dell models have topped our two previous color laser printer charts. This month the company keeps the streak alive with the new $500 3110cn. The unit's print speed and output quality fall just shy of that produced by its predecessor, the discontinued 3100cn; however, its cost of operation is competitive, and it produced some of the best text and color output we've seen.

Oki Printing Solutions' $400 C3400n debuts as well. It has very good text-printing quality, and its price is low.

Also noteworthy is Konica Minolta's $300 magicolor 2500W, which missed the chart despite its appealing price--it's the lowest-priced color laser we've seen to date.
