Which printer is best for my office?

Even in the age of digital communication, it's hard to imagine offices without a good old printer. How else would you print invoices or important documents on paper? But not every office needs the same printer: do you need an inkjet, ink tank or laser printer? And how much do you want the device to cost in the long run?

First of all, you want to answer these questions: Do you need a device that can print, scan and copy? What and how much do you want to print? Do you need to print text only, or also colour graphics, photos or even booklets? How important is printing quality to you and how much do you want the device and the future ink cartridges or toners to cost?

To help you with these questions, I've identified three business printer profiles. Is one of them what you’re looking for?

Occasional printing

You only use your printer sporadically for easy print jobs, for instance in your home office or a small office? You need to do some scanning, colour copying and photo printing, too? If so, you're probably best off with a low-price inkjet printer. These three best-selling inkjet multifunctional printers might be of interest to you:
