The Canon Pixma MX700 is a great choice for small offices with a wide variety of print tasks. This inkjet multifunction beats out the competition with a winning combination of features and performance.

2 Samsung CLX-2160 AIO

Samsung CLX-2160 AIO

Samsung's cute little colour MFP wins points with us for its compact style, although otherwise it's a deeply average printer.

3 HP Photosmart C5280

HP Photosmart C5280

Its features set is oddly unbalanced, and better all-in-one inkjet options cost just a bit more, but the HP Photosmart C5280 is a good bet for casual home users on a tight budget.

4 Canon Pixma MP520

Canon Pixma MP520

The Canon Pixma MP520 doesn't offer all the bells and whistles found on other budget all-in-ones, but it's a solid device that does the basics right while delivering best-in-class quality.

5 Canon Pixma iP4300

6 Canon Pixma iP4500

Canon Pixma iP4500

The Canon Pixma iP4500 is a bit too expensive for basic home users, but those who do a bit more printing than the occasional e-mail and map will be happy with its speed and quality.

7 HP Photosmart C8180

HP Photosmart C8180

The C8180 multifunctional printer is an excellent choice for photo enthusiasts. It prints high-quality text and photos at a heavy price: the printer is slow. If you always choose quality over speed, the C8180 will be a worthwhile addition to your digital toolshed.

8 Canon Pixma iP100 Inkjet Printer

Canon Pixma iP100 Inkjet Printer   Editors’ Choice

It isn't cheap compared to standard printers, but the Canon Pixma iP100 has the highest resolution available in the mobile printer market and prints at an impressive speed to boot. If you simply must have a printer with you at all times, the iP100 should be the do-it-all at your side.

9 Samsung CLP-300

Samsung CLP-300

Less than stellar print quality and glacial colour printing mar this otherwise admirable stab at shrinking the colour laser printer and making them more user friendly.

10 Canon Pixma MP210

Canon Pixma MP210

If you're looking for the best print and scan quality from a budget all-in-one, the Canon Pixma MP210 is the one for you. Other models, however, offer more substantial feature sets.

    • HP Deskjet D4360 Colour Inkjet Printer

      HP Deskjet D4360 Colour Inkjet Printer

      The Deskjet D4360 justifies its asking price nicely. At the same time, you do get exactly what you pay for.

    • HP Deskjet D2560

      HP Deskjet D2560

      A bare bones desktop printer with a minimum of features and accessories, the HP Deskjet D2560 is really only suitable for printing basic black and white pages. Don't trust it with your photographs.

    • Lexmark X4650

      Lexmark X4650

      Students on a budget should consider the X4650, but only against the vast raft of other MFDs on the market.

    • Kodak ESP 5 All-in-One Printer

      Kodak ESP 5 All-in-One Printer

      Kodak sells the ESP 5 on its cheap printing capabilities. Sadly, in this context, cheap equals not very good.

    • Canon Selphy CP770

      Canon Selphy CP770

      The Canon Selphy CP770 is a neat, little dye-sublimation printer that includes a bucket for easy travel, but the battery pack which would make it totally portable is not included.
