The Top Printers for Quiet Printing

Brother PT-1010

$30.00 Est. at Amazon

from A Customer from Rome , Georgia, clickfrom.buy.com
this printer is very handy and its size makes it easy to store until ready to use.
from Ramesh from Bothell, WA, clickfrom.buy.com
it prints very quietly and very fun and easy to use.
from John from Pleasant Grove, UT, clickfrom.buy.com
i'm using the option to reduce the amount of spare tape on the edges, but it only works for the end of the print, not the beginning.
from BJ from Kent, WA, clickfrom.buy.com
i've only used it for simple printing and haven't tried any special symbols or different tape sizes, but it works great.
from Lew Payne from Boise, ID, clickfrom.buy.com
it is a great little label maker, and replaces a 7 year old one that is much more bulky and has less features (another brother, which served me well).

i haven't really had much time to run this printer through its paces, but i can tell you that the print quality is superb, and that it makes nearly no noise at all.
from www.amazon.com
this is a beast of an all-in-one-printer - it's roughly 4 times the size and weight of the nice little canon i560s photo printer i recently wore out (it really shakes my computer table).
from www.amazon.com
the size of the printer is a bit big and bulky but the design of it is pretty nice and solid.
from www.amazon.com
it's also very easy to set up and use, but the feature that surprised me most was how quietly it printed.
from www.amazon.com
there's also a quiet mode you can choose, but i've found it's so quiet during regular mode that i won't need it.

from Michael F. from Mississippi, clickfrom.buy.com
i'd read that it's very noisy, but by comparison to what we used to have, it's much quieter (my old laser printer sounded like an airplane taking off.) so, i guess it's all relative on that point.

i have the printer sitting right behind me and don't find that it is as noisy as was said in other reviews; of course it make a little more noise that the photosmart printers but the print quality is

when a print signal is sent to the printer it is slow and noisy preparing to print.
from www.amazon.com
it's the fastest printer i've ever owned and it has a mega amount of features (lcd, prints directly on cd's/dvd's, direct print from memory cards, etc.) considering the price point.
from www.amazon.com
the only negative i have with it is that the normal capacity ink cartridges don't last that long.
from N/A, www.newegg.com
doesn't really matter since the drivers work great; they're all i need.also, this printer makes an unbelievable amount of snorting and other such noises prior to printing.
from N, www.newegg.com
a little louder than i think the average printer i have owned.

if you require an accurate print on fine-art paper at a decent variety of sizes, it is not a bad choice, but profiles are easier to find for the epsons.
