1. Epson Ecotank ET-3600
A great long-term investment
Print speed: 33 pages per minute | Scan resolution: 1200 x 2400 dpi | Features: Print, copy, scan | Dimensions: 489 x 300 x 169 | Weight: 4.7kg
The Epson Ecotank ET-3600 is our top choice for an all-in-one printer as it can handle printing, scanning and copying with ease, and it’s also very reasonably priced. However, best of all it is cheap to run, thanks to its use of ink bottles, rather than cartridges, which last longer and are cheaper to buy. Epson claims the Ecotank ET-3600 can save you around 70% on printing costs, and combined with its 3-in-1 capabilities, this makes it a must-buy for many businesses.
2. Canon Pixma TS6050
Small but feature-packed
Print speed: 15 pages per minute | Scan resolution: 1200 x 2400 dpi | Features: Print, copy, scan | Dimensions: 372 x 315 x 139 | Weight: 6.2kg
The Canon Pixma TS6050 is an excellent all-in-one printer for many businesses, thanks to its compact size, which means it can easily be placed in the majority of offices. It’s also Wi-Fi enabled, which makes choosing a spot to place it even easier. It does a great job of printing, copying and scanning, and while the print quality isn’t as high as the Epson Ecotank ET-3600, its low price and small size makes it a very tempting alternative.
3. HP Envy 5540 All-in-One printer
A brilliant budget all-in-one printer
Print speed: 22 pages per minute | Scan resolution: 1200 x 1200 dpi | Features: Print, copy, scan | Dimensions: 161 x 454 x 410 mm | Weight: 6.82kg
The HP Envy 5540 All-in-One printer offers printing, scanning and photo printing, supports not just USB but Wi-Fi, Wireless Direct and AirPrint wireless printing, and it even offers automatic double-sided printing. Considering that the HP Envy 5540 All-in-One printer has a price tag that is quite a bit lower than many of its competitors makes this feature list even more impressive. However, as a budget all-in-one printer, it does mean that its print and scan quality, and speed, isn’t quite as good as some of the more expensive all-in-one printers in this list.
4. Epson WorkForce Pro WF-4630
Economical print costs for volume printing
Print speed: 20 pages per minute | Scan resolution: 1200 x 2400 dpi | Features: Print, copy, scan, fax | Dimensions: 461 x 422 x 342 mm (Width x Depth x Height) | Weight: 14.35 kg
The WorkForce Pro WF-4630 is a solid all-in-one printer for small businesses and workgroups given its fast print speeds, solid print qualities and remote printing and scanning capabilities. Using the larger XL print cartridges, the WF-4630 delivers economical print costs that rival laser printers. Unlike some of the other all-in-one printers in this best of guide, the Epson WorkForce Pro WF-4630 also features fax capabilities, and can connect directly to the internet.
5. HP Deskjet 2130 All-in-One printer
An even cheaper all-in-one
Print speed: 20 pages per minute | Scan resolution: 1200 x 1200 dpi | Features: Print, copy, scan | Dimensions: 241 x 424 x 309 mm | Weight: 3.52kg
If you think the HP Envy 5540 is cheap, then you’ll be really impressed with the price of the HP Deskjet 2130 All-in-One printer. If you only need to occasionally print, scan and photocopy documents, then this is a great choice for saving money. However, as it is so cheap, it does mean you have to make some sacrifices, so there’s no wireless printing or Ethernet. If you want to share this printer on the network, then you can plug it into a router. But, for an all-in-one with a rock-bottom price, this will be a hard printer to beat.
