When juggling documents, these multifunctions don't clown around
Not everyone can afford a personal assistant to print, copy, fax, and scan reports and letters, but these multitalented laser printers tackle nearly every noncolor document need for a small or home office. These models make crisp laser printouts and scan in color, too, but you'll need to fulfill your photo-printing fantasies elsewhere.

| Review summary | The Brother DCP-8040 excels at prints and copies, but it can't handle everything in the multifunction bailiwick. | The Samsung SCX-4100 is an economic choice for small-job printing, copying, and scanning, but Mac users or those who need to fax must look elsewhere. | The LaserJet 3030 is one of the most affordable all-in-one printers for small businesses. For peak performance, however, seek the LaserJet 3380 instead. |
