Best Color Laser Printer 2015 Consumer Reports

This printer was highly rated in Consumer Reports and it has not disappointed. It ran smoothly the first time and every time.

Consumer Reports gives Epson's XP-830 a TOP rating for use (ink+) cost. THAT RATING IS COMPLETELY FLAGITIOUS from my experience with a new printer. The printer is fantastic in all other ways. But ink use/cost is terrible. It guzzles the ink cartridges supplied with the printer. And the OEM versions sell for LIST PRICE, period. These XL cartridges may prove to be a relief but at twice the price they'll have to exceed the claimed output rating. At least B&H Photo sells them with free shipping if you buy 2 or more and their service is perfect.

I purchased this Brother printer because Consumer Reports said it was the most "ink friendly" and wouldn't put me in the poor house. It has proven to be true over time.

This is an excellent wireless color laser printer.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought my laser printer in 2015 and only now do I have to replace the yellow! I do a fair amount of digital printing of my art, too.

This color laser multifunction printer works very well with no jams and beautiful color.

Brother makes a great Laser color printer, so you'd expect them to make great cartridges. AND they do!

Laser printer that does it all.

For disposable batteries, these are the best! They really do have 9x the capacity of standard batteries - Consumer Reports tested them. They ARE lithium batteries so they weigh less. I've never had any fire or overheating problems but I am aware that lithium batteries can have these problems. They have a long shelf life as well. I primarily use rechargeable batteries but I keep these in my camera bag as a backup. The price from B&H is competitive.

Very pleased with the quality of this screen. Noted evaluation in Consumer Reports as I was researching to upgrade a 10 year old screen. Upgrade necessary as I have initiated a project to edit and sell underwater photography. Was very pleased with the ease of unpacking and setting up the screen. Delivered with a convenient stand which I am using on my desk as well as two sets of cable to connect to computer. Was not familiar with the brand but am delighted with my first investment.
