Review: Overview:

This printer comes loaded with features, and with current rebates out there, a good color laser printer for under $300 is hard to pass up. I was looking for something for my home office, where I could print my own color business...

Review: I purchased this printer almost on a whim on Ebay because I was looking for a duplexing printer to print brochures for our nonprofit trails advocacy & maintenance organization (www.triangletrails.org)

In the past I've had to go to the copy...

Pros: Low per-page cost for B&W, two-sided printing, comes with full toners

Cons: Slow to produce the first page, heavy

The Bottom Line: A great value for most homes and small offices. It is flexible, reliable and inexpensive to operate.

Pros: Cheap duplex

Cons: doesnt last long

Review: I bought a CLP550 roughly 2 years ago.Its used at home for light duties about 1-5 pages per day!

Pros: Built-in duplexing, reasonably quiet, good color/b&w, price.

Cons: Pretty big machine, no USB included

Pros: Great Print Quality, built-in Duplexing

Cons: Toner Cartridges Expensive, Starter Cartridges have short life, Standby to Printing is Slow

Pros: Doesn't jam, excellent color, duplex

Cons: Heavy, heavy and big

Review: I bought my printer off eBay, and when I received it...it wouldn't work. I worked with tech support for about week, fixing or attempting to fix the printer. (By the way, these techies are about the best I've ever worked with). Finally, I was told I...

Pros: Trouble free printing and duplexing

Cons: Not a photo printer

Review: After nursing along ink jet printers with touchy print heads, this color laser is a pleasure to use in my home office.

Color is required by todays standards and with more documents being transmitted in PDF format a duplexing color laser is...
