Pros

  • Very good text and photo output
  • Simple, easy design

Cons

  • No automatic duplexing
  • Expensive toner

At A Glance

The low purchase price makes color-laser-class (LED) printing available to budget-minded small offices. Because toner is expensive and there's no automatic duplexer, it's best for light use only.
