| The Bottom Line | The Magicolor 2430DL is a fine machine for anyone whose text-printing needs trump their color-printing demands. | The Lexmark C500n is a fast color laser printer fit for a multiuser environment with high-volume printing needs. The competition offers more features, but slower printing or lower-quality prints. | This HP is affordable if you want a simple color laser printer with wired networking, but it's sluggish. | Despite its less-than-perfect text quality, we consider this to be one of the best all-around deals for an affordable color laser. | Despite its lagging black print speeds, the Brother HL-4040CN does a lot of things right and makes a compelling color laser printer for small offices or workgroups. |
