The good: The Dell 1815dn comes with a built-in duplexer and is network ready; it supports Windows, Mac, and Unix machines and is speedy at printing black text. There is a wealth of options for each of its functions: print, scan, copy, and fax. Dell provides generous support options for this inexpensive laser printer.
The bad: The Dell 1815dn's color scans were washed-out.
The bottom line: The Dell 1815dn is a good choice for a home office or a very small workgroup that needs a network-ready multifunction machine for monochrome printing, scanning, faxing, and copying.
