Canon Pixma iP5300
"excellent" (6 out of 6 stars)
Value for money: 6 out of 6 stars
"A List"
|
"Labs Winner"
"... there simply isn't another printer in the group that can match the iP5300 for speed, quality and value, so we have no hesitation in recommending it as this month's Labs Winner."

Canon Pixma iP6700D
"very good" (5 out of 6 stars)
Value for money: 4 out of 6 stars
|
"... It isn't quite up there with the nippy iP5300, but it's well ahead of the HP D7360. And there's an integrated duplex unit for added convenience and saving paper, as well as a CD and DVD printing tray ..."

Dell 725
"poor" (2 out of 6 stars)
Value for money: 3 out of 6 stars
|
"If your budget is so limited you have to buy a cheap printer, we can't recommend the Dell 725. You'll get better prints, faster speeds and lower running costs by spending an additional £12 ..."

Epson Stylus Photo R265
"good" (4 out of 6 stars)
Value for money: 3 out of 6 stars
|
"... text showed feathering, while the colours in our ISO document weren't particularly accurate. Rather than a lighter black, the R265's draft output is light brown and the text is disjointed. ..."

Epson Stylus Photo R360
"good" (4 out of 6 stars)
Value for money: 2 out of 6 stars
|
"... The R360 ... fared superbly in our fade-resistance testing, but, unfortunately, there's one printer that betters it at this price point. ..."

HP PhotoSmart D5160
"very good" (5 out of 6 stars)
Value for money: 3 out of 6 stars
|
"... although the D5160 is a good printer in its own right, we simply can't see a reason to choose it when the D7160 sports a superior-quality and more economical ink system for exactly the same price."

HP Photosmart D7160
"very good" (5 out of 6 stars)
Value for money: 6 out of 6 stars
"Recommended"
|
"... with the advantage of an LCD screen, a 6 x 4in photo paper tray and a set of memory card slots it's a goo alternative if you'll take advantage of these extra features."

HP Photosmart D7360
"very good" (5 out of 6 stars)
Value for money: 4 out of 6 stars
|
"The touchscreen is great, but it doesn't justify the price hike over the D7160."

Lexmark Z845
"dreadful" (1 out of 6 stars)
Value for money: 1 out of 6 stars
|
"... Draft text is disjointed, while colour documents are banded, lack sharpness and take too long to land in the output tray. There's no PictBridge port or card slots and the overall build quality is flimsy. ..."
