+ Auto duplex printing
– Initial setup is difficult |
 |
It is a winner in this category due to its superior features and performance.
However, the printer gave good performance in terms of speed, as time taken to
print first page was 11 secs and it has an overall speed of 20 ppm. The price
per page is Rs 1.17. It didn't do well in the grayscale test, although its
performance in other graphics and text quality tests was good. It comes with 16
MB RAM which is upgradable to 272 MB. For connectivity, it has parallel and USB
interfaces.
Bottom Line: The auto duplex feature,
makes it exciting for this category .

+ Good speed
– Low image quality, no auto duplexer |

This printer is also meant for small workgroups and prints at a resolution of
1200 dpi. It is powered by a 32 bit RISC 166 MHz processor and has 32 MB RAM
that's upgradable to 144 MB. The cost for printing is Rs 1.77 per page. For
connectivity, it has a parallel and a USB interface. This printer does not have
an auto-duplex printing mode. It is similar in performance to the Wep Laser
2500. In our tests, the printer gave good quality text prints but when we threw
full page graphics at it, the print quality was below average.
In the speed tests, the performance was good and time taken for the first
page print was 11 seconds and the overall speed was 21 ppm.
Bottom Line: A useful printer for regular
text printing requirements.
