| The Bottom Line | The HP Color LaserJet 3500 is a good printer for a home office or a small business that needs quality printing but not expandability. | Although the HP CP2025n is rather slow to print black documents and is missing supplementary features such as USB-direct printing and wireless, the color laser shines in output quality, and the software holds your hand through a somewhat daunting learning curve. The CP2025n also has a high monthly duty-cycle, so we recommend it to anyone hunting for a workhorse printer to complement an equally diligent work environment. | This color printer has a bare-bones configuration and slow color print speeds, but it is extremely affordable, offers great print quality, and can be upgraded as your printing needs change. | Home-based businesses and small offices looking for a sub-$1,000 color laser with a network printing option should consider the Samsung CLP-500. | Fine-but-slow text and fast-but-crummy color make the LaserJet 3550 hard to recommend. |
