HP Color LaserJet 2840 Cons

 

Most users complain about the noise the device makes when printing. The four-toner cartridge’s mechanism along with the frequent initialization routine emits unnecessary noise. If you want a super quiet AIO printer then this is not the product for you.

 

Brother MFC-9320CW All-in-One Printer Pros

 

While most all-in-one printers give more attention to print quality, the Brother MFC-9320CW Printer focuses more on speed. Print speed is up to 17 pages per minute. This is pretty amazing for its price range ($389.99-$500.78). If you care more about how fast you can get hold of your print outs than having excellent quality print outs with vivid colors then this multi-functional printer is exactly what you need. Don’t be mistaken though because this reasonably priced printer has outstanding text-print quality. Output quality can be up to 600 x 2400 dpi. The Brother MFC-9320CW Printer is highly recommended for small offices that have modest printing requirements. Similarly, the Brother MFC-9320CW ink cartridges work harmoniously with several different media paper to give you full color photo print outs with even skin tones, as well as text documents that are crisp and professional-looking.

 

Another advantage of this machine over other AIO printers is its Wi-fi and PictBridge (print directly from a digital camera without having to connect to a computer) connectivity. Aside from being compact, other advantages include fax flexibility, good quality color scanning and ease of toner cartridges replacement.

 

Brother MFC-9320CW All-in-One Printer Cons

 

While this printer is considered to be one of the fastest within its price range, the cost per print out is costlier than average. Another shortcoming that you may want to consider with this device is its limited sheet (250) capacity. Also, it doesn’t allow for duplex printing. If this is not a big deal for you then there’s no reason why you wouldn’t go for this inexpensive printer.
