Konica Minolta PagePro 1400W Review

- The compact Konica Minolta PagePro 1400W costs just $120 (as of 8/4/2006), but it lacks several features that you can find on printers costing only a little more. Its single paper tray holds just 150 sheets. The tray also lacks a cover to protect against dust and spills. Most monochrome lasers we've reviewed recently offer at least a manual slot for feeding alternative paper types and envelopes, but for the 1400W, these must be swapped into the tray. (At least you can feed up to ten envelopes from the tray--some printers let you feed only one at a time.)
