All Multifunction Devices

The Bottom Line: The HP Photosmart C7180 all-in-one photo printer serves up a boatload of features and prints great-looking photos, but it performs all of its tasks slowly. You can do better for the same amount of money.

Specs: Fax, Copier, Printer, Scanner, Ink-jet, 4800 x 4800 dpi

The Bottom Line: The Brother MFC-440cn has a lot to offer, but it falls short on print quality. We prefer the Canon Pixma MP530 for a small-office environment.

Specs: Fax, Copier, Printer, Scanner, Ink-jet, 2400 x 600 dpi

The Bottom Line: The Canon Pixma MP530 is a nearly ideal all-in-one for a small office. It just lacks networking and media card slots.

Specs: Fax / copier / printer / scanner, Fax, Copier, Printer, Scanner, Ink-jet, 1200 x 2400 dpi, None

The Bottom Line: The Canon Pixma MP460 is a minor update to the MP450. We still like its print quality but were disappointed by its scans. Still, it's one of our top choices for a photo-centric budget all-in-one.

Specs: Copier, Printer, Scanner, Ink-jet, 1200 x 2400 dpi

The Bottom Line: The Canon Pixma MP180 all-in-one printer costs only $10 more than the entry-level MP160 and offers many more features. Skip the MP160 and go for the MP180.

Specs: Copier, Printer, Scanner, Ink-jet, 1200 x 2400 dpi

The Bottom Line: The entry-level Canon Pixma MP160 is a decent all-in-one printer for the price, but don't be tempted by the entry-level machine: the Pixma MP180 costs a mere $10 more and provides the same print quality and a ton more features.

Specs: Copier, Printer, Scanner, Ink-jet, 600 x 1200 dpi

The Bottom Line: The HP Photosmart C5180 is a perfectly acceptable photo all-in-one, but you can get more features and faster print speeds for the same amount of money.

Specs: Copier, Printer, Scanner, Ink-jet, 2400 x 4800 dpi

The Bottom Line: The HP OfficeJet 4315 does it all, but does it slowly and not very well. It's a decent choice if you need a cheap all-in-one on hand for those "just in case" moments, but if you print even semiregularly, you're better off spending a little bit more for a better all-in-one printer.

Specs: Fax, Copier, Printer, Scanner, Ink-jet, 1200 x 1200 dpi

The Bottom Line: The Canon Pixma MP950 is a near ideal photo all-in-one for an amateur photo enthusiast. The inclusion of fax and networking capabilities would've made it a must-buy.

Specs: Copier, Printer, Scanner, Ink-jet, 3200 x 6400 dpi

The Bottom Line: With its wealth of photo-manipulation features, the Canon Pixma MP800R is a great choice for an amateur photo hobbyist. It's also fast at all tasks, which makes it a better choice than the HP Photosmart 3310.
