More Canon reviews , RRP: AU$89.00

The good:

  • Inexpensive
  • Excellent prints
  • PictBridge port

The bad:

  • Subpar scanning
  • Dearth of features
  • Lacks media card slots

The bottomline:

The entry-level Canon Pixma MP160 is a decent all-in-one printer for the price, but don't be tempted by the entry-level machine: the Pixma MP180 costs a mere AU$20 more and provides the same print quality and a ton more features.

      HP Deskjet F4280 All-in-One

      The HP Deskjet F4280 is an affordable printer for students and home users as it does a pretty good job of printing. However, if you also need a scanner that does a top job then this all-in-one printer is not for you.

      Lexmark X4650

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

    • Brother MFC-7440N

      Brother MFC-7440N

      The Brother MFC-7440N prints quickly and is fairly inexpensive to sustain, but we simply can't get behind a printer with poor quality graphics, significant hardware defects, and a boring design.

    • Lexmark X4875

      Lexmark X4875

      It's a step back in the style stakes, but there's still plenty to like about Lexmark's latest small office wireless printer.

    • 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.
