We have a Brother ink jet that has does a good job and has reasonably priced consumables (for an ink jet - stay away from cannon and epson). We have several Brother printers and faxes and multifunction machines. All are good. We think Brother is the best of all printers we have tried.
We have a Konica-Minolta color laser that we don't use much. The print quality is good. It it good for printing checks and envelopes - nice front feed. It programs easily/automatically. For example if you print the bottom check (of a sheet of 3) with Quickbooks, it automatically asks you if you have the tear off strip at the bottom so it will print correctly. Very nice to work with a printer that helps you like that. The OKI and some others were 'stupid' and required the user to know and do everything. We had a terrible experience with OKI color laser. It broke after about 600 copies. They wanted us to pay the shipping to them to fix it.The thing weighed a ton. Luckily we bought at Costco so we just took it back and got a refund. We thought the old dot matrix OKI printers were great, but we would never buy OKI ever again. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Paul Newton" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, September 25, 2007 11:32 AM Subject: Re: [NF] I need advice for an office color printer Michael My advice would be to get them, and everybody else over there, to standardize on A4 <g> Paul Michael Madigan wrote: > I have a real estate office that wants to put in a new > printer.
