For business owners, there's one office equipment you will not do without, and that's a good printer. Currently there are 3 home office all-in-one printers from Canon. These are my printer reviews - the top 3 printers for a home office. Sometimes it's not easy to pick the best office printer. Do you want one to have a fax or not? Is print speed, and energy efficiency important? For me it's nice to have a fax built in with my printer. In my opinion this is what makes an office printer. The Canon PIXMA MX870, MX350, and the MX340 are all very good wireless printers. You can set them up almost anywhere so everyone has access to them. Each of these printers needs a code to access the editing and printing of PDF files.
Here is the breakdown on all 3 printers.
Canon Printer PIXMA MX870:
The resolution is brilliant at 9600 x 2400 color dpi. Great for business documents and photos. It also has an independent ink system which works with 4 dye based inks including black ink. With the independent ink system you can replace only the ink that runs out which saves money. It has an advantage of printing and copying on both sides of the paper without you turning the paper over. This definitely saves time and plenty of paper. Another cool thing is that there is a 2 way paper feeder. You can load paper on either the front or back of the printer. The printing speed I think is a little slow. It takes 30 - 40 seconds for the first page to print and 1 minute for 3.5 pages overall to print. What I didn't like was the lag time between pages.
Canon printer PIXMA MX350:
The resolution for this printer is terrific at 4800 x 12006 color dpi. Canon uses what they call a Full-photolithography Inkjet Nozzle Engineering. It's great for document and photo printing. It uses 2 ink cartridges. One is a black cartridge for detailed quality text. The other, a multi color cartridge. Both are very easy to replace. When you upload your pictures, the printer automatically categorizes the images into 5 styles. If any of the images were under exposed the printer has an option of automatically correcting the images. The print speed for this printer was pretty good at 5.7 pages per minute.
Canon printer PIXMA MX340:
This printer has the same terrific resolution as the MX350 at 4800 x 12006 color dpi. Which also uses the Canon Full-photolithography Inkjet Nozzle Engineering. At 5.8 pages per minute, this printer is the fastest. What all three have in common are these.
Built-In Wireless
Built-in Ethernet
Super G3 Fax
USB 2.0 Hi-Speed
Energy Star Qualified
These are my printer reviews-the top 3 printers for a home office. Depending on what you are looking for, a good start up office printer that I would consider would either be the MX350 or the MX340. Both of these have fast printing speeds with great resolution with about a difference. The MX870 has the best resolution overall. If you are printing many multi color graphs for presentations this one may be for you. The ink will come out to be cheaper in the long run.
