Laser printers continue to come up in quality and down in price. Monochrome printers are now well in reach of home and small offices, that can now take advantage of the fast, accurate printing that these devices provide. Some color lasers are also coming within reach of small business, although for really accurate photos at reasonable prices, inkjet photo printers are still the place to go.
1) Brother HL-5140
A solid monochrome laser printer is one of the best tools a home/small business could own. Laser printers can pump out reams of documents more quickly and cleanly than an inkjet, and toner cartridges can cost a lot less in the long run than inkjet cartridges. The Brother HL-5140 got plaudits from PC World and high marks from PC Magazine; both publications said it offers high-quality text, which is what most businesses are looking for from a low-cost laser.
