Last Rated: October 26, 2004	4. Dell Laser Printer 1700 Rated 25 pages per minute, 1200-by-1200-dpi maximum resolution, Legal-size paper, maximum, 251 pages input, 150 output, 15.5 by 13.9 by 9.8 inches; 27 pounds, Street price when ranked: $199 (8/27/04), Bottom Line: Model was slow to print--especially when generating the first page. Its graphics output was the best we've seen, though, and an optional 550-sheet second paper tray is a bargain at only $100. Full Review • Test Report • Check latest prices

Konica Minolta PagePro 1350W Rated 21 pages per minute, 1200-by-1200-dpi maximum resolution, Legal-size paper, maximum, 150 pages input, 100 output, 15.2 by 11.5 by 11.1 inches; 17 pounds, Street price when ranked: $180 (8/27/04), Bottom Line: This Windows-only model economizes by relying on your PC's processor for image processing.

No PostScript printing, but this model is otherwise a good deal for a laser printer with duplexing. Full Review • Test Report • Check latest prices	Check Latest Prices

Xerox Phaser 4500/N Rated 36 pages per minute, 1200-by-1200-dpi maximum resolution, Legal-size paper, maximum, 700 pages input, 500 output, 16.6 by 18.3 by 17.3 inches; 45 pounds, Street price when ranked: $1200 (8/27/04), Bottom Line: This unit was a breeze to install on our network, and its relatively zippy print speeds for both text and graphics should satisfy most workgroups. Print quality was mediocre, however, lacking the detail we expected. Full Review • Test Report • Check latest prices	Check Latest Prices
