The IBM Infoprint 1332n is a fast and adaptable workgroup laser printer that's a smart choice for small, growing businesses.

Although the solid-ink-based Xerox Phaser 8400 color laser series offers expandability for a growing small business, the merely fair image quality might disappoint.

The Xerox Phaser 4500B is a fast and capable printer that is perfect for a small business with plans to grow.

The HP Color LaserJet 3500 is a good printer for a home office or a small business that needs quality printing but not expandability.

The affordable HP LaserJet 1012 delivers good print quality and speed, but it's best suited for short reports and graphs.

The Dell W5300n is a good choice for a busy workgroup with a capable IT staff.

This low-cost, Ethernet-ready printer will grow along with your business, but Dell's IT-support offerings don't yet match the competition's.

The HP Color LaserJet 1500L's low price puts good color-laser printing within the grasp of budget-strapped small offices. But if you need high volume or room to grow, get a more expandable model.

The LaserJet 1300 offers fast prints and a lot of expansion options for a home office or a small business. Unfortunately, its print quality fails to measure up to the rest of its attributes.

A small home office with light faxing, scanning, and copying needs could make do with this product.
