Brother MFC 9840CDW

$819.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
It is pretty big and it is pretty heavy.
from www.amazon.com
It is bulky, but is has the functions and quality, which justify the size and weight.
from www.amazon.com
This sucker is heavy.
from www.amazon.com
The PROS are that this unit is well packaged (albeit heavy), easy to set up, and does what it says it will do.
from UGLi, www.newegg.com
My last multi-function was an HP, and in the three years I owned it before my office was struck by lightning, I can't recall a single paper jam.

Brother HL-2170W Laser

$147.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
The ceiling light is on another circuit in my office and it would flicker when the printer fired up.
from www.amazon.com
I did read a review about putting tape on the sides of the toner so that the light that shines through doesn't prematurely call the toner empty--I plan on doing that ;) I highly recommmend this printer.
from www.amazon.com
Pros: Nice quality feel, small, light weight, super fast, 32MB Memory, easy set up, cheaper toner replacements compared to other brands, wireless
from www.amazon.com
It works well with some of my heavier weight stock - Avery postcards.
from www.amazon.com

Canon MX850

Check Site at Amazon

from Ron Scott from Bentonville, Arkansas, clickfrom.buy.com
It is rather large and heavy, however, it has a lot of functions built in and it is a sturdy printer.
from halfstring, www.newegg.com
Pros: Quality is excellent for graphic designers looking for a basic all-in-one printer scanning and light proofing.
from www.amazon.com
I haven't put this unit to heavy usage (as this unit was purchased for hme usage) but I find it has more than enough features to keep me happy.
from www.amazon.com
Decent size and weight (read the specs before ordering) but that's expected for a printer that does all this.
from www.amazon.com
Its weight and size are adequate, considering all its features.

Xerox Phaser 6130

$903.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
It will dim the lights and can trip circuit breakers if they are already loaded with other appliances.
from www.amazon.com
Also, the initial toner cartridges that come with it feel very light, almost as if they're empty but it's been lasting a long time.
from www.amazon.com
In addition, the printer weighs only 38 lbs.
from drrchrds, www.newegg.com
The toner cartridges it comes with feel really light, I would price refills before purchasing this.
from embersyc, www.newegg.com
Cons: Seems pretty power hungry, using it in a home office and it makes my lights flicker when not in standby.

Brother HL-2140 Laser

$124.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
I bought this machine to use in my small business and it is worth it's weight in gold.
from www.amazon.com
I have tried multiple different paper weights and have the same problem.
from www.amazon.com
Only bad thing that I can say about the printer is that it does draw alot of electricity-your lights will dim when it goes into the printing mode.
from www.amazon.com
However, the toner, drum and error lights come on all at once, sometimes.
from www.amazon.com
Lightweight construction is not a problem to us at home, but it's really clumsy on envelopes.

Brother HL4040CN Laser

$391.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
this machine is far too heavy - maybe that's what you need for a quality product though, I don't know.
from www.amazon.com
Thought its quite heavy, its not intended to be portable.
from Larsen E. Whipsnade, www.newegg.com
Pros: During 6 months of light (10-20 pages) personal home document printing, this printer:is quieter than my tower fans and hard drives, even while printing.
from www.amazon.com
It's kind of big and heavy, but for a laser printer it's what I'd expect.
from www.amazon.com
Lights up Red when there is a problem.

Canon PIXMA Pro9000 InkJet Photo

$853.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
However, the printer is VERY heavy and takes up a lot of room on the desk, as many people have mentioned, but if you have the space and you don't plan on moving it around the house, it shouldn't pose a problem.
from bleary, www.newegg.com
Cons: It's big and heavy but what can you expect of something which prints up to 13 by 19?
from www.amazon.com
Three, although the specs say the printer will print on lighter weight paper (17 lb, if I recall correctly) I wouldn't use anything less than 24 lb if you're going to use the auto feeder.
from www.amazon.com
It's a good (but heavy) printer, but buyer beware -- it may not print the size of paper you want.
from www.amazon.com
This is a very heavy printer.

Canon PIXMA Pro 9500 InkJet Photo

$1,486.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
It offers large 13x19 borderless printing, amazing color reproduction, and it can even adjust the color for the type of light the photo will be viewed under.
from www.amazon.com
I have tried to follow the manual and I have yet to get the front loader light to come on.
from N/A, www.newegg.com
it will take heavy weight paper - and can feed straight through front to back if needed- so you don't have to deal with it trying to bend something thick in the upper feed tray.the borderless printing feature is great- and works on media types of man...
from www.amazon.com
If you buy a printer of this caliber you will no doubt be operating with a fully color-managed workflow - note that I use a Mac Pro running OS X 10.5 Leopard, Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop CS3.
from lt.dell.com
Considering how large and heavy this printer is, I was surprised at how quiet it is while printing.

Canon PIXMA MP620 InkJet

$154.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
I assess photo quality by the difficulty in seeing individual ink droplets in light shaded areas of the print -[...] prints are so good that I cant see any ink droplets at all.
from www.amazon.com
It's large and a little heavy, but I was sick of my previous printer's light-weight design.
from www.bestbuy.com
Although slightly annoying, I am not a heavy user of the printer so the picture printing is more of the focus.
from www.amazon.com
Want a printer that runs out of black ink after 50-70 sheets of light text printing, and refuses to delve into its OTHER black ink tank (the one for photos) as a reserve?
from www.bestbuy.com
Canon thought out the little things to make it more convenient like lights on the ink when they're snapped in, easy instructions, and including a usb cable.

Brother HL-4070CDW

$942.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
Bought this printer for some light home office and medium church duties.
from www.amazon.com
The negative aspects for some people might be: It weighs 70 pounds (I never move it, and being wireless, it can sit anywhere), it uses serious electricity for the heaters when printing so you need a good 15 amp line, some people think it's noisy when...
from MH, www.newegg.com
I agree with what others have noted in that the printer weighs quite a bit.
from www.pcnation.com
Pros Good quality printing Vibrant color Cons Big and heavy Wireless is not easy to set up Comment No Comment.
from www.amazon.com
It is a heavy, robust machine and I strongly recommend that if you're not confident in your own strength, then get help to lift it from the carton and place it where you really want it to be or on a wheeled table - you won't want to be shifting it to...

HP Photosmart C8180 All-in-One

$415.00 Est. at Amazon

from Billy, www.newegg.com
Nice printer and scanner, but LightScribe is a joke.
from www.amazon.com
Be aware there are some functions, such as some features of the LightScribe, that will not work unless you connect directly to the computer, i.e., not via LAN or wireless.
from www.amazon.com
I have not tried the light scribe feature to burn and label any disks, but since it performs everthing else so well I'm sure that will work just fine.
from www.bestbuy.com
I do not know how much i will use the DVD lightscribe picture burner on it and would have probably traded that for a automatic feeder on the top.
from A Customer from LI NY , clickfrom.buy.com
The CD burner is another plus with the lightscribe.

from www.amazon.com
This is the first mobile printer I have owned so I don't have anything to compare it with as far as being heavy.
from www.amazon.com
The power light and resume light just kept blinking no matter what I did.
from www.amazon.com
Only con is weight -- but manageable.
from www.amazon.com
Heavy duty but not so heavy.
from www.amazon.com
Portability : It's light weight for a color printer, but it's still heavy enough that I wouldn't want to carry it far.

from www.amazon.com
It is bulky and it is heavy--so what, I say.
from www.amazon.com

from www.amazon.com
That printer was easier to setup than others had me believe, but it consumed so much energy that my lights flickered with every print.
from www.amazon.com
It comfortably holds about 50 pages of paper so you need to take that into consideration if you are a heavy user.
from www.amazon.com
Overall, a great little printer - sleek design, love the blue LED lights, prints quickly and quietly.
from www.amazon.com
One of the things that you don't get to experience until you see it in person is the nifty blue LED lights that appear in a small square on the front of the machine when you turn it on, or tell it to print.

Canon PIXMA iP4500

$315.00 Est. at Amazon

from A Customer from Edmond, OK, clickfrom.buy.com
Replacing cartridges is clean and simple, with both the software and a little red light pointing out exactly which cartridge to exchange.
from www.amazon.com
I'm not a heavy user of it but for light printing users like myself, it works like a charm, which is a tall order for printers these days.
from sad, www.newegg.com
Print head holder does not slide and it gives alternating flashing lights.
from Doc53, www.newegg.com
Other Thoughts: I did some research on this printer and found out that it can print CD/DVD labels, (beats Lightscribe).
from N/A, www.newegg.com
"Fast" print mode on this is too light, but "Standard" is good.

Never jammed, the cartridges that came with the printer lasted all these months for a light home use.
from www.amazon.com
I am a light home user, and bought this because my old printer was a parallel port printer and a bit long in the tooth.
from www.amazon.com
It seems as though only one side is pulling the paper and it immediately jams and I get the orange warning light.
from www.amazon.com
I would recommend it for light printing needs....
from cyrral from Michigan, www.circuitcity.com
The performance is good for draft printing without making the printout too light.

Nice to have the scale that inputs the weight into Dymo Stamps.
from www.amazon.com
I have to zero it and get my item on it before it starts adding on the extra weight.
from www.compuplus.com
No more runs to the post office for those items I am unsure of the weight on.

The scale works by itself without the software (giving weight only, not postage amount).
