It’s unlikely that you’ll be able to tell the difference between Gel and Inkjet as they both produce good results. Ricoh claim that it’s more resistant to fading and won’t smudge once it’s dry but pigment inks have similar claims too.

However, if you want something that has fax, network and Wi-Fi then your options are limited. Plus, another unique feature is that it natively supports Apple’s AirPrint technology.

The same 7,000 page low yield toner will fit in both Dell machines, however, the high yield toners are different. The 5250dn takes a 21,000 page high yield toner whereas the 5350dn takes a 30,000 page high yield toner for around the same price, which makes the Dell 5350dn 30% cheaper to run!

Dell are the new kings of cool thanks to their excellent 5230dn mono laser printer. Dell’s quoted print speed of 43ppm is no sweat according to PC Pro, since in their tests the machine managed a remarkable 44ppm using the 2400IQ print resolution setting! As with most printers, selecting the top resolution (1200dpi resolution setting) does bring the print speed down but PC Pro felt that the print quality in the 2400IQ was clean and sharp so didn’t see a reason to use the higher resolution setting.

The good news doesn’t end there. They liked how the Dell 5230dn machine accepted an extra three 550-sheet drawers, an envelope feeder and a 2,000-sheet feeder. If you purchase the Dell 5230dn, PC Pro does advise that users opt for the 21,000 page toner cartridge to get the very best running cost. This goes without saying but they do point out that the lower yield toners are particularly expensive per page.

PC Pro also pointed out that other accessories are available and the level of advanced security available makes this machine suitable for even the most demanding user. In fact, they tell us that the Dell 5230dn is their “new favourite network laser printer”.

The new Samsung SCX-4729FW multifunction mono laser printer has now been launched. Spec level as you might expect from Samsung is very good:

If you’re after a small mono MFP the Samsung SCX-4729FW machine is one machine worth adding to the shortlist. If you would like further advice please call us on 0800 170 7234. Alternatively, we’ll call you: Click here

The Phaser 6700 replaces the Phaser 6360 machine but they’ve seriously ramped up the specs:

Print speed was 40ppm now 45ppm >> 12.5% increase
Basic RAM was 256mb now 1024mb >> 400% increase
Processor was 1Ghz now 1.25GHz >> 25% increase
Resolution was 2400x600dpi now 2400x1200dpi >> 100% increase in one dimension
Max. paper input was 2,350 sheets now 2,900 sheets >> 23% increase
Standard paper output was 250 sheets now 500 sheets >> 100% increase

New features include:

One exciting addition is the new zero commitment PagePack available on this model. If you don’t want to worry about planning for your next set of toner you can simply pay a set cost per page. There are no coverage limitations and if you don’t print you don’t pay. Simple!

Nick’s Thoughts:

I get on very well with Brother’s range of A3 inkjets and the new MFC-J6510DW was no exception. It printed out both A4 and A3 sheets of paper very quickly for an inkjet using the standard print quality setting and produced good quality printouts. If you want photo print quality, the high resolution mode produces excellent results if used with photo paper (Brother have their own range of A4 and A3 media).

The Brother MFC-J6510DW includes duplex print, WiFi, large colour display, automatic document feeder and a proper 250 sheet paper tray. What I expecially like are the new larger capacity inks that you can buy for this range, which makes it even more suited for office life. If you only need occasional A3, I’d definately recommend a Brother A3 inkjet.

Here’s a brief summary of the differences:

Looking at the specs above you’ll notice that only the Kodak Hero 6.1 model features a duplex ADF (automatic document feeder), which means for an office user this is probably the model to opt for.

Epson have four different models depending on what level of spec you’re after. If it’s black then you’ll get WiFi connectivity as well as the standard USB and network options. Contrary to some of the Epson literature, all the four models will accept their XXL cartridges so you can be sure of the very best printing costs available. So depending on model you will get…

Epson’s new WorkForce Pro 4015DN and 4025DW machines are now available and if you buy one before the end of the year, they’ll even throw in a Free 3 Year Warranty (registration required). Extra High Yield Ink Cartridges are available on the WorkForce Pro 4015DN (the white one), which help to make this machine not only cheap to run, but also suitable for more demanding office users due to fewer interruptions.

Both models include USB and Network connectivity, but the WorkForce Pro 4025DW (the black one) also includes Wi-Fi. We find it strange that Epson make consumers choose between either extra high yield inks or Wi-Fi connectivity (printer colour aside), but our recommendation would be the 4015DN (the white one) unless you require Wi-Fi connectivity. Call us on 0800 170 7234 if you want us to help you figure out if you really need Wi-Fi.

Update (10/10/2011):
We’ve dug a bit deeper and have ascertained that all the WorkForce range will take the XXL cartridges although Epson don’t make this very clear on any of their literature. We’re guessing this is some kind of market strategy but if you want WiFi and cheap running costs you can in fact have both!

Brief spec
Type: A4 Colour Inkjet Printer
Print Speed: Up to 26ppm Mono and 24ppm Colour

Wow, the Canon PIXMA MG5350 Multifunction Inkjet Printer really packs in the goodies. This is the first none  HP machine to support Apple’s AirPrint technology. Canon say that a simple firmware upgrade may be necessary and then away you go. Other advanced features are included too such as “Cloud Link” print technology to print via the web(Canon plan to launch from October using primarily Google’s Cloud print service), the ability to print directly onto CD/DVD/BD and duplex (double-sided) printing all as standard. It’s not bad at printing, copying or scanning either.

The replacement Samsung CLP-775ND machine uses the same toners as the CLP-770ND, which make it unbelievably cheap to run. The new machine also looks the same but there are three main differences:

1. The print speed has been increased from
   32ppm to 33pm
2. The memory has been increased from
   256mb to 384mb
3. The new machine has a new dual core processor, which replaces the single core processor

When looking at a printer’s rated print speed this is only achieved assuming the printer is able to process the print job. The new dual core processor and extra onboard memory means the Samsung CLP-775ND will perform well even when printing complex documents, flyers, posters, etc.

The Brother DCP-7030 multifunction laser printer has now gone end of life and there are two replacement models:

Brother DCP-7055 - 2ppm slower than the DCP-7030 but benefits from a lower price point

Brother DCP-7060D – 2ppm quicker and has two-sided printing for a similar price point as the DCP-7030

Nick’s Thoughts:

Xerox have designed a truely amazing machine and its lightweight design and small footprint will be a hit in any home or small workgroup environment. Its print speed is pretty impressive considering its size and the print quality is excellent. One thing I love is how Xerox have made replacing the toner a doddle – some small laser printers can be a nightmare.

If you want a workhorse machine the running costs may prove a bit exorbitant so you should look at one of Xerox’s more expensive models but for light use it’s ideal. If you need advice please call our sales team on 0800 170 7234 or 0161 308 5800.

My recommendations…

INTERACT S605

Print, copy and receive faxes in mono for under 1p per page thanks to an unbelievably cheap black ink cartridge. This model has two input trays so you can keep your basic office paper for receiving faxes and printing internal documents loaded in the machine along with you more expensive customer facing paper. The large 50 sheet automatic document feeder lets you copy, scan and fax documents in one go. This machine also has the funky touch screen display, Wireless N connectivity and two-sided printing.

Nick’s Thoughts:

This machine performed well under internal product testing and we found that its performance was on par with the discontinued Phaser 8560 (the ColorQube 8570 was slightly faster when printing in its “Fast Colour” mode).

The noticeable areas of improvement are the way the inks are now loaded into the machine and the added ability to remove them if necessary. The new inks require less heat to become useable, which has allowed the ColorQube 8570 to become Energy Star compliant. Other improvements such as extra memory on the base models and a more powerful processor will help this machine perform well even in the most demanding office.

I’m a huge fan of Xerox’s Solid Ink technology and use one on a daily basis. The solid ink output is totally different to both inkjet and laser so it really depends what you expect from a printer, which is why I’d recommend getting in touch prior to purchase:

Brother’s new DCP-7060D Multifunction Printer is ideal for any user requiring print and occasional copy and scan functionality from a small desktop mono machine. This new model now includes duplex (two-sided) print to help reduce paper usage.

More Info: click here

The print quality produced is very impressive, for a machine of this price point the printed output rivals some of the higher end £500+ machines, thanks to Xerox’s unique EA toner, which is chemically manufactured to produce smaller and more uniformed toner. If you want to know more about EA toner we suggest you read Xerox EA Toner Guide.

The two models are based on the same engine, with the Xerox Phaser 6010 printer having the benefit of built-in network connectivity to enable the machine to be shared across a network.

• A4 Colour Laser Printer
• Up to 12ppm mono print speed, 10ppm in colour
• 1st Page out in 17 seconds
• 600 x 600 x 4 dpi print resolution
• 64MB Memory
• USB 2.0 interface (network on Phaser 6010)
• 150 sheet paper tray

Nick’s Thoughts:

Over the past couple of years Lexmark has worked hard to manufacturer a range of quality inkjet machines. The GENESIS S815 is no exception with great features such as double-sided printing, individual ink tanks, web-enabled touchscreen display and more. However, the main point of buying this machine is for the built-in flash-scan technology, which allows users to scan documents in seconds. It’s great to use and it’s almost vertical design means it takes up less desk space than a normal flatbed. I wouldn’t recommend this machine for users requiring a high volume scanner due to the lack of an automatic document feeder (ADF).

Nick’s Thoughts:

This was our first attempt at producing a video review so I’d like to apologize for the poor visual and audio quality. Hopefully, what can be taken away from this review is just how impressive the Phaser 7760 machines are. Print speeds, paper handling and finishing options are what you might expect from a high-end office machine but what really makes the 7760 stand out from the crowd is it’s superb print quality.

More Info: Xerox Phaser 7760

Nick’s Thoughts:

When you move up to Lexmark’s C73x range there is a significant improvement in build quality. These machines are designed with high volume printing in mind. Print speeds are good and print quality is equally impressive.

The first thing I noticed was its size – it’s huge. If you have the space, it’s rock solid and built to last with advanced features, such as automatic double-sided copy and scan. The magicolor 4695MF is the same as their BizHub C20 machine, but without the mandatory managed service contract. The great thing about Konica Minolta is their magicolor range currently come with a FREE 3 year onsite guarantee offer, meaning contracts could be a thing of the past.

A suitable replacement for an office inkjet and will produce more professional looking results. Only recommended for light use as this machine is cheap to buy but the running costs are on the high side. Consumables are easy to replace and installation was simple so this machine is ideal for users with little technical knowledge.

The OKI MC350DN and MC360DN machines have just gone end of life. But there’s no need mourn because their replacement models are a stunning improvement!

Suitable for anyone requiring an A4 colour Laser/LED printer, copier, scanner in an easy to use all-in-one multifunction machine. The MC361DN also has built-in fax.

Unlike their predecessors, the MC351DN and MC361DN can now duplex (double-side) print, copy, scan and fax (on MC361DN only). The new control panel makes the machine even easier to use and the smaller design will sit unassuming in most office environments. This machine now comes with 256mb of onboard memory rather than 128mb and has a 533MHz processor rather than 266MHz, which allows OKI to run this new print engine at speeds of up to 22ppm in colour and 24ppm in mono compared with just 12ppm in colour and 16ppm in mono!

Xerox have taken their technology to the next level with the new ColorCube 8570 (the replacement to the Phaser 8560). As expected, the print speeds have been increased to an impressive 40ppm in colour and mono, the processor is now a whopping 1Ghz and there’s 512MB of RAM as standard.

However, the real advancement worth shouting about is the research Xerox have done to refine their solid ink blocks. This new wax now has a much lower melting temperature, which means that its warm-up time from power-up has been improved and the energy used in standby has been reduced enough to become ENERGY STAR® qualified.

Nick’s Thoughts:

I was very impressed with this machine! It’s really well built, it’s quick, the toners are easy to access and replace, the print quality is very good (I’d recommend getting print samples) and being Kyocera means it’s going to be cheapest to run in its class.

The OKI MC560 has now been replaced by the superior MC561DN machine. Double-sided printing is now standard (rather than optional) and we’re particularly pleased to see that this replacement model now incorporates a reversing automatic document feeder, allowing the machine to double-side scan/copy/fax.

The MC561 is based on OKI’s brand new A4 C5xx LED print engine, which we’ve been very impressed with (see our C510dn video).

The new Brother QL-500BW is a new entry level thermal label printer with a small price tag. The cost reductions have been achieved by reducing the print speed to 50 labels per minute and by removing the automatic cutter and replacing it with a manual cutter.

Oki’s new mono B700 series has now been launched keeping them one step ahead of the competition.

The top of the range B730 is an earth shattering 50ppm, which is achieved thanks to a new 600MHz processor! The B710 and B720 are no lightweights and can print at 40ppm and 45ppm respectively.

All models boast 1200x1200dpi, 128MB of onboard memory (upgradeable to 640MB) and network connectivity making them great for even the most demanding users.

We think this printer is truely brilliant and well worth serious consideration. The engine this machine is based on is chosen by various other manufacturers including Brother, Epson, Konica Minolta and Xerox but Oki are the first manufacturer to squeeze so much performance from it.

Features include:

• Up to 50ppm
• 1200×1200 dpi
• 128mb onboard memory
• 2 paper trays as standard
• All trays capable of up to 216gsm media

There are cheaper mono laser printers on the market but if you want a dependable workhorse machine for your busy office we would highly recommend one of these machines.
