HP LaserJet 1300
The HP LaserJet 1300 is the replacement for the inimitable LaserJet 1200 which was the stalwart of previous years, and many reviewers and users favorite. The 1300 still retains much of the character of the older model, such as the sloping front, USB only, no USB or parallel cable, but does it improve on its predecessor?
At first glance, the LaserJet 1300 looks cheap and flimsy. The paper tray at the front doesnt look very sturdy, the construction doesnt look as solid as some of the other series of printers and it doesnt come with any cables to connect it up.
The exterior does not relate to the strength of the printer though. The print engine is strong, the processor and memory are quite capable of providing fast, quality printing that would suit almost any use. Photographs can be a little vague, but the grayscale is good, and they are easily understandable. Text is the real strength of any laser, as well as the strength of the LaserJet 1300. Edges are exact, coverage is even and black, edges are sharp. Even the smallest points are clear, unblurred and look perfectly good enough for business use.
While this printer is USB only in its basic form, it is expandable to be wireless with the purchase of a wireless card. The only downside to that is that it costs half the price of the printer. If you can overcome that, its a great way to free yourself from wires and share the printer between machines.
The LaserJet 1300 uses HPs instant on fuser technology which uses smaller toner particles that take much less warming up than traditional toner. This also apparently allows the printer to lay the toner down more accurately, which might explain why the print quality is so good.
The initial setting up is simple. Once unpacked, there is a poster-type instruction sheet that makes it about as easy as it is possible to be to get up and running. USB is about as easy as it can be for Windows users, as it takes care of everything itself. The driver package also installs everything itself and it all just, works.
Dont be fooled by the first impressions of the LaserJet 1300. It might not look like much but its every bit as capable as anything else out there at the price.

Brother MFC 7860DW – What You Need To Know
Overview:
Work productivity was the main concern of those from Brother Company when they designed the MFC 7860DW multifunctional printer that allows you to scan, fax, copy and print pages with the same device. It’s great for small spaces because you get a compact shape of 12,4 x 15,7 x 15,8 inches and a weight of only 26.5 pounds. It doesn’t skimp on quality even though it helps you reduce your costs. So, we can say for sure that this model is perfect for business environments.
Pros
Are you looking for a total eco device? Well, you have just found it because the ENERGY STAR system will only consume 1.7 watts if you put the printer in sleep mode. The Toner Saver Mode allows you to go even a bit further with the savings by reducing your costs on consumables. The duplex feature will allow you to save paper and time by creating quality double-sided outputs and you also get a copy function similar to duplexing. Input several pages and the data will be condensed in a single output page.
In terms of durability, the Brother MFC 7860DW offers you a duty cycle of 2k sheets monthly but you can expand it to 10k sheets according to your needs. The speed of 27 ppm allows you to focus on what truly matters: getting the job done, not waiting around the machine to print a dozen of pages. If you want to save some toner and paper the double sided copying feature will come in handy. You input a one-sided original and you will get a two-sided output. Also, you get a standard duplexing function that adds to the efficiency of the device.
When it comes to paper handling, the printer offers you a decent tray of 250 legal or letter sized sheets and a direct paper path for special media so that you can easily print envelopes and letterheads. You can employ this direct path through the manual feed slot. The output tray can handle about 100 pages at once and the system helps you organize your pages easier by getting them out with the face down.
If you scan documents very often you will love the ability to transfer them directly to FTP servers, emails and you also get some features called scan-to-OCR, file and image. The manager can modify network settings and monitor the activity of any device with access to the network thanks to the BRAdmin professional software. You can restrict the page limit whenever you want. Security is established through the 4-digit pin and the scanned docs will be faxed over the internet. You could preset a configuration of resolution, file format, destination and size beforehand. You could also fax the data to an extra fax server when you need to retransmit them. As you can see there are lots of things that enhance work efficiency.
If you are interested in network connectivity, this device will offer it to you either through wireless connection or USB ports. This way you will access features like PC faxing from the comfort of your own office without going next to the printer.
The scanning feature is a really complex one. Once you scan the docs you can archive the files and then edit or send them online. In addition, you can set some default settings that apply to a particular sort of docs. For instance, the resolution, the destination and the size and file format can be modified in advance. The automatic document feeder can store 35 scanned pages in the memory which is another reason why we say that the Brother MFC 7860DW was created for work efficiency.
Cons
You would be surprised to find out that the Brother MFC 7860DW doesn’t offer color printing which is pretty weird for such a complex device. The standard input paper tray isn’t expendable and the memory of 32 Mb isn’t either. However, if we just take a look at the good things listed above I bet that such minor inconveniences aren’t that important. Still, if you are looking for color outputs, you should choose something else because this device can’t offer you this. This model is the perfect choice for those who are interested in efficiency.
