CNET's business buying guide
CNET editors' picks for printers
By Christopher Null (updated April 13, 2004)

The fundamental technologies behind office printing haven't changed much over the years. Laser printers still deliver crisp text and graphics at top speeds, and they are less expensive to operate than inkjets. Inkjets offer low-cost color printing, but they are slower than lasers, and the cost of ink cartridges and paper can quickly add up. Overall, the output quality is better, print speeds are faster, and prices are lower than they were a few years ago, which means that you have many great choices for business.

How to buy printers for your business
