2: Epson WorkForce 610 Wireless Color Inkjet All-in-One Printer

An incredible versatile all-in-one printing solution with a seemingly high price tag, Epson’s WorkForce 610 Wireless Color Inkjet All-in-One Printer is an excellent machine for price it demands in stores.

Reasonably sized at 16.7”x20.6”x11.3” and weighing around 24 pounds, the WorkForce 610 Wireless Color Inkjet All-in-One Printer is a high performance device that also manages to appear sleek, trendy, and elegant.  Affixed to the top of the unit is a tilter 2.5” LCD monitor that grants easy access to its wide variety of features, allowing you to edit, crop, and retouch photos even if the printer is not hooked up to a computer.

One of the more notable features of Epson’s WorkForce 610 Wireless Color Inkjet All-in-One Printer is the built-in Wi-Fi functionality.  After a brief period to enable the functionality, this all-in-one can be printed from and accessed from anywhere that you have access to your home network.  This means that this printer works fantastically as a family printer - anyone in the house can print from it from their laptops without having to drag their machines into the room with the printer.

The print quality itself is as great as the speed with which it prints - as high as 36 pages per minute in black ink.  The WorkForce 610 Wireless Color Inkjet All-in-One Printer can print monochrome images as quickly as 15 pages per minute, and 9.3 pages per minute for color images, making this one of the fastest all-in-one printers that we have tested.

Additional notable features include the capability to print directly to CDs and DVDs, allowing you to create professional-looking discs with the slightest of ease.  The WorkForce 610 Wireless Color Inkjet All-in-One Printer also includes a fully-featured fax machine, copier, and scanner, each of which are more than capable of replacing those machines in your work or home office.

Overall, Epson’s WorkForce 610 Wireless Color Inkjet All-in-One Printer is a wonderful machine that can be considered as a serious contender for one of the best all-in-one printers that we have had the pleasure to look at.  Provided you’re willing to spend a little bit of extra money for the machine, we think you’ll think its the best in its class, too.

3: Canon PIXMA MP560 Wireless Inkjet All-In-One Photo Printer

Canon’s name has long been synonymous with high-quality photo printing solutions and great cameras, and their recent foray into the all-in-one market has consistently produced similarly great results.  Their PIXMA MP560 Wireless Inkjet All-In-One Photo Printer, even though it is marketed as one of their lower-end all-in-one printers, nonetheless meets and exceeds Canon’s reputation for excellence and quality.

Despite a seemingly plain and almost boring design, the PIXMA MP560 Wireless Inkjet All-In-One Photo Printer boasts a wide range of features, including a fully-functional s.0” LCD screen.  Overall, the PIXMA MP560 Wireless Inkjet All-In-One Photo Printer measures at 17.9”x14.5”x6.3”, making this one of the smaller all-in-one printers around.  This is actually a great mark in its favor, as you’ll be able to place this all-in-one almost anywhere in your home office.

Both black ink and photo image quality are crisp and clean, and reasonably fast - a 4x6 photo can print in about 39 seconds, and black documents fly out of the machine at 9.2 inches per minute.  Color documents are similarly quick at 6.0 inches per minute.

One of the lesser-known but highly useful features is that the Canon PIXMA MP560 Wireless Inkjet All-In-One Photo Printer can print photos without being hooked up to a computer - simply put in the memory card from a camera or a phone, select the images you want to print, and you’re good to go.  

The other features of the PIXMA MP560 Wireless Inkjet All-In-One Photo Printer are also great, with a scanner capable of 2,400x4,800 optical/19,200x19,200 interpolated resolution at up to 8.5”x11.7”.  The scanner/copier is also capable of auto scan mode, gutter shadow correction, network scanning, push scanning, and scanning to memory.

Overall, the PIXMA MP560 Wireless Inkjet All-In-One Photo Printer is a fully-featured, budget-priced all-in-one printer.  If your home office or computer den is looking for a great printer that can handle multiple functions with speed and great quality, then the PIXMA MP560 Wireless Inkjet All-In-One Photo Printer just might be for you.

4: Brother MFC-7840W Laser Multifunction All in One Printer

Brother's new MFC-7840W Laser Multifunction All in One Printer is one of the few laser-printing based all-in-one printers that we've looked at recently, and it is not only one of the best laser solutions, but one of the best all-in-one printer solutions that we have looked at in some time.

Printing and copying are both quite snappy, and the MFC-7840W Laser Multifunction All in One Printer is capable of printing and copying at up to 23 pages per minute.  Printed pages look great too - crisp, clean, and laser-sharp text at up to 2400x600dpi output is astonishingly high for the speed and low expense.  One of the greatest features about this Brother all-in-one printer is that it can handle a wide variety of paper media, including legal size, envelopes, labels, and just about anything else that we could think of to run through it.

One of the only features that we found to be lacking with the MFC-7840W Laser Multifunction All in One Printer is that the scanner/copier is a flatbed, and that it does not have an auto-feed option.  This means that if you need to scan, fax, or copy ten pages, then you're going to be placing each page manually on the scanner tray.  That said, the scanning and copying quality are quite high and more than sufficient for most any home business or home office need.

Finally, the Brother MFC-7840W Laser Multifunction All in One Printer is also equipped with wireless, Ethernet, and USB connection options, allowing you to print from any room in the house.  This also means that you don't even necessarily need to connect this printer to a computer at all, and you could do all of your printing entirely wirelessly.

Overall, the Brother MFC-7840W Laser Multifunction All in One Printer is a fantastic all-in-one printing solution.  While the upfront cost is a little on the high-end, you will very likely end up saving money in the long term thanks to the extraordinarily cheap cost-per-page of printing with a laser printer.

5: Epson Artisan 725 Arctic Edition All-in-One Printer

Despite being meant as a step or two down from Epson's flagship all-in-one printer, the Artisan 835, the Artisan 725 Arctic Edition All-in-One Printer is nonetheless a fantastic all-in-one model capable of very high-quality printing with surprisingly inexpensive ink prices.  Available in either glossy black or a shiny white, this all-in-one is easily one of the most attractive all-in-one printers that we've reviewed, too.

Similar to other all-in-one printers in its price point range, the Artisan 725 Arctic Edition All-in-One Printer is capable of functioning via USB, wireless, or Ethernet.  When we tested this Epson model, we opted for the wireless mode, and found setting it up to be fast and painless - which is somewhat rare even in high end printers.

Despite the fact that the Artisan 725 Arctic Edition All-in-One Printer can't handle a huge quantity of media at any given time, it is surprisingly versatile, and the bottom-mounted, 120-sheet paper tray also has room for 20 sheets of photo paper.  It's also capable of printing directly to CD/DVDs, and automatically prints on both sides of the page.

The actual printing quality is quite good.  Although the print quality of the text is above average, it pales in comparison to how fantastic photos, color pictures, and PDFs come out, which easily rank as some of the best we've seen in an all-in-one printer in some time.  To top that off, the scanning quality is phenomenal.  Despite not being the fastest printer, at 7.4 pages per minute for text and about 64 seconds for an 8x10 photo, the quality more than makes up for its mediocre printing speed.

The sheer versatility of Epson's Artisan 725 Arctic Edition All-in-One Printer, particularly when combined with its cheap ink refills, makes this a model fantastic for any home office, or even a professional office.

6: HP Photosmart Premium C310a All in One Printer

If you’re a gadget-lover that needs a printer that is capable of performing a wide variety of functions, then your best bet in a printing solution is almost always going to be an all-in-one printer instead of five or six different devices.  In recent years, all-in-one printers have become dominant in printer sales, and the HP Photosmart Premium C310a All in One Printer is one of the best that we’ve looked at in a long time.

Design

The HP Photosmart Premium C310a All in One Printer is a sleek and stunning beauty of an all-in-one printer.  Featuring a straightforward and easily-understood touch-screen control display, few other all-in-ones are half so attractive as this model.  Although it’s a bit heavy, weighing in at 16.9 pounds, it thankfully isn’t too big - only 17.9” x 17.7” x 7.8”, meaning that you will be able to put it on just about any shelf in your home office. 

Printing

One the whole, print quality of the HP Photosmart Premium C310a All in One Printer is excellent and fast - up to 33ppm for black ink documents and 32ppm for colored documents.  The HP Photosmart Premium C310a All in One Printer can also print on both sides of the paper, meaning that you’ll save a fortune in paper if you do a lot of printing.  Actual photographs come out of the printer vivid and clear, and appear to be professionally printed.

The HP Photosmart Premium C310a All in One Printer is a great all-in-one unit.  If you’re looking for basic, black and color printing, then the C310a is a fast and reliable machine, and photographs come out looking great.  It’s also capable of scanning at a bit depth of 48-bit, and up to 19,200dpi for enhanced images.  This, combined with the great copying functionality, means that you really can’t go wrong with the HP Photosmart Premium C310a All in One Printer.

7: Kodak ESP 9250  All in One Printer

Designed to replace their ESP 9, Kodak's ESP 9250  All in One Printer is meant to be the pinnacle of their all-in-one printing line, and it meets this goal with vivid, gorgeous success.  A sleek, high-end machine, the ESP 9250  All in One Printer can meet the demands of any home or home office, regardless of the level of demand you place on it.

Like other all-in-one printers, the ESP 9250  All in One Printer can print (both text, color documents, and photos), scan, copy and fax with ease.  It can also print directly from USB thumb drives or media cards, so you don't even have to have the ESP 9250  All in One Printer hooked up to a computer for it to be productive.  Like other all-in-one printers in this price range, this Kodak model can be connected via USB, Ethernet, or through a wireless connection to your home network.

Measuring in at 17"x18"x9", the ESP 9250  All in One Printer is big enough to accommodate any of your printing and scanning needs while retaining a fairly small desktop footprint.  Attached to the front face of the unit is a 2.4" full-color LCD, making menu navigation and settings tweaking a breeze.

Although the paper tray holds only 100 sheets at a time, meaning that you wouldn't want to use this for heavy-duty office printing, the 40-page tray for photo paper more than makes up for this in terms of time saved.  Plus, the ESP 9250  All in One Printer can automatically print to both sides of a page, which will save you a great deal of money over the lifetime of the unit.

Printing quality, particularly for black text, is superb, although color documents and photographs were good at best.  Provided that you aren't planning on using the photos for more than memories to have framed, then the ESP 9250  All in One Printer should be more than enough printer for you.

8: HP Photosmart eStation All-in-One Printer

The HP Photosmart eStation All-in-One Printer is HP’s new vision of an all-in-one printing solution, and it combines a fast, effective color inkjet multifunction printer with the Zeen.  The Zeen, in addition to sporting a bizarre name, is a detachable touchscreen panel that is used to control the printer.  Running the Google Android 2.1 operating system, the Zeen is actually a fully-capable miniature tablet computer, capable of providing an e-book reading experience and an Internet browser all while controlling the printer itself.

However, the addition of the Zeen has boosted the cost of the HP Photosmart eStation All-in-One Printer up to £379, which is quite high for any all-in-one printing solution.  Whether the Zeen is worth the extra cost is entirely up to you, however, and we’ll try and help you figure out if it's worth it.

The Zeen itself works quite well as a control panel.  Measuring in at 7 inches, reading menus and options on the color touch screen is surprisingly easy.  However, the actual screen seemed sluggish and almost hesitant to identify user inputs, occasionally even reading a swipe as a tap.  The Zine is capable of controlling the Photosmart eStation All-in-One Printer whether or not it is plugged in, and you can even insert an SD card when the Zeen is removed to print without a PC.

Control niggles aside, the Photosmart eStation All-in-One Printer is a fantastic printing solution, whether you’re looking to print mostly black ink documents or full-color photographs.  Black ink documents are printed at roughly 8.4 pages per minute, and color pictures practically fly out of the machine at 3.8ppm.

The actual printing quality is very high as well, and the contrast of black ink on white paper was astonishing.  Photographs, provided that you use HP’s glossy photo stock, come out vibrant and detailed.

If you’re looking for the next generation in all-in-one printer technology, then the Photosmart eStation All-in-One Printer just might be an ideal model for you.  However, if you’re more interested in a standard workhorse all-in-one printer, then you might be advised to look a little bit further down the price point ladder.

9: Lexmark Genesis All-in-One Printer

Chances are, you've never seen a printer, or really any device, quite like the Lexmark Genesis All-in-One Printer before.  Where most printers are beige or white, the Genesis All-in-One Printer is black.  Where most printers are squat, square affairs that are more wide than tall, the Genesis All-in-One Printer is an obelisk of an all-in-one machine.

However, a bold exterior design is useless if the actual printing, scanning, and copying functionality of the printer are poor.  Thankfully this is absolutely not the case with Lexmark's Genesis All-in-One Printer, and both text and photograph printing quality is excellent.  The only real issue with photo printing is that photos tend to have a slightly ridged edge on one side, although assuming that your photos will be going in a frame or a scrapbook, this is really just a minor issue.

Overall, the Genesis All-in-One Printer is an easy printer to use.  The 4.3" touch screen makes just about every operation of the printer quite easy, although it isn't particularly great for typing messages despite having the ability to do so.

One of the great features of the Genesis All-in-One Printer is that it stands vertically, meaning that you will probably have an easier time fitting this on a traditional computer desktop than you might with other all-in-one printers.

Just about every aspect of this printer reflects its modern design, too.  Setting up the Lexmark Genesis All-in-One Printer to function over a wireless network is extraordinarily easy, as it optimizing copying, scanning, and faxing settings.  Overall, it shouldn't take more than five minutes to be up and running with this sleek all-in-one.

If you're looking for a top-notch photo printer, a speedy document printer, and an effective, high-resolution scanner and copier, then you should seriously consider the Lexmark Genesis All-in-One Printer.

10: Canon PIXMA MG8120 Wireless Inkjet Photo All-In-One Printer 

Canon has long been at the forefront of most people’s minds when they think of printers, and it's easy to see why: as a manufacturer, Canon consistently delivers some of the best printing solutions in the world.  Their PIXMA MG8120 Wireless Inkjet Photo All-In-One Printer more than lives up to expectations - it exceeds them quite dramatically.

The PIXMA MG8120 Wireless Inkjet Photo All-In-One Printer is a surprisingly feature-rich machine, capable of not only wireless printing/scanning/copying, printing incredible quality photographs, but also scanning and printing directly from 35mm slides or film strips.  What this means is that you can finally get all of those old shoeboxes filled with film out from the basement and turn them into digital treasures.  What’s more, thanks to the great printing quality, you can immediately print them in more vibrant color and quality than ever before.

One of the only real disadvantages to the PIXMA MG8120 Wireless Inkjet Photo All-In-One Printer is that the scanner is not an auto-feeding device.  Rather, it is a flatbed scanner, which means that you will have to manually insert and remove each page when you’re done.  That said, the scanner is quite high-end, and should meet all of your demands provided that you’re willing to deal with a minor inconvenience.

Overall, Canon’s PIXMA MG8120 Wireless Inkjet Photo All-In-One Printer is a phenomenal all-in-one printer, and keeping up on ink costs isn’t too bad, either: each color costs around $15, but the four-pack of color ink runs about $52.  This is about in line with Canon’s major competition.

Unless you absolutely must have an auto-feeding copier and scanner, the PIXMA MG8120 Wireless Inkjet Photo All-In-One Printer should be an all-in-one printer quite high on your potential purchases list, thanks to its great photo-quality prints, crisp black-ink printing, and surprising capacity to handle 35mm slides and film strips.

11: Canon ImageCLASS MF4350d Laser All-in-One Printer

Canon has long been known for delivering world-class, fully-featured all-in-one printers, and the ImageCLASS MF4350d Laser All-in-One Printer once again delivers on that promise.  Designed to compete with all-in-one printers of all price ranges, the MF4350d absolutely destroys all of the competition.

Many all-in-one printers are large, bulky affairs that demand half of your desk top to be used effectively.  Not so with the ImageCLASS MF4350d Laser All-in-One Printer - it measures in at a mere 15.4”x21.0”x17.0”, making it one of the smallest all-in-one printers that we’ve looked at in awhile.  This means that you can place this even on a smaller-sized shelf in your office or computer den, and you won’t have to sacrifice desk space to have a great printer.

The ImageCLASS MF4350d Laser All-in-One Printer is controlled through a straightforward LCD display system that will inform you of the details of the copying, scanning, and printing process.  While it doesn’t function as a touch screen, the buttons, clearly labeled below, serve the purpose of inputting commands more than sufficiently.  While the number of buttons can be initially confusing, the printer itself walks you through each printing process, making printing, scanning, and copying quite easy.

Capable of outputting black ink documents at a rate of 23 pages per minute, the ImageCLASS MF4350d Laser All-in-One Printer is quite quick and agile for an all-in-one printer.  It prints color images and photographs at almost equally as fast speeds.

One of the particularly nice features of the ImageCLASS MF4350d Laser All-in-One Printer is that it uses a single cartridge ink system, meaning that replacing ink in the machine is an easy, clean, and simple affair.  Although you may occasionally have to replace the entire cartridge when a single color runs out, the MF4350d is egalitarian with its printing process, so this will only rarely be an issue.

12: Canon PIXMA MG6120 Wireless Inkjet Photo All-In-One Printer

Canon's sleek new high-gloss black PIXMA MG6120 Wireless Inkjet Photo All-In-One Printer is as easy on the eyes as it is to operate.  Thankfully, that easy operation didn't come at the cost of great printing quality, as both text and color documents/photos come out quite clean and crisp.

Featuring Canon's all-new Intelligent Touch System, the PIXMA MG6120 Wireless Inkjet Photo All-In-One Printer is also very easy to operate.  The buttons react to the slightest touch, and are integrated with the control panel in such a fashion that you will be up and running and optimizing your settings with the slightest of effort.

Unlike many other printers in this price range, Canon's PIXMA MG6120 Wireless Inkjet Photo All-In-One Printer is capable of using grey ink.  This means that in addition to being able to print professional-quality color photos, you will also be able to print great-looking black and white prints.  While this isn't a feature that everyone will use, it's a fantastic addition to this printer's already formidable feature lineup.

Another feature that's important to mention is the Full HD Movie Print software, which allows you to take clips from Canon's EOS Powershot and turn them into beautiful prints.  Like the grey ink, this isn't a feature for everyone, but if you own a compatible Canon camera then you may find great utility in this well-working feature.

As an added benefit, particularly for students, professionals, or anyone that does a great deal of text printing, the PIXMA MG6120 Wireless Inkjet Photo All-In-One Printer can automatically print to both sides of a single page of paper.  This not only saves money on paper, but will make your bags lighter and stapled documents slimmer, and will make your text seem far more professional.

Overall, Canon's PIXMA MG6120 Wireless Inkjet Photo All-In-One Printer is an excellent all-in-one printer.  The quality of text, pictures, scanning and copying are all excellent, and they're fast too.  Best of all, this printer is on the lower end of the price spectrum, making it an ideal choice for just about any home office environment.

13: HP Photosmart D110A Wireless e-All-in-One Printer 

HP’s Photosmart D110A Wireless e-All-in-One Printer is one of the simpler all-in-one printers that we’ve looked at, but that hardly makes it a bad choice.  Rather, its an ideal choice for anyone that needs a multifunction machine, but doesn’t want to pay a ton of money for it.

Black and glossy in appearance, the Photosmart D110A Wireless e-All-in-One Printer is a compact machine, measuring in at 17.4”x15.85”x7.09” and weighing in at 10.32 pounds.  This means that you will be able to place the Photosmart D110A Wireless e-All-in-One Printer  just about anywhere in your home office or computer den.

Controlled by a 2.36” LCD display and a small series of buttons, the Photosmart D110A Wireless e-All-in-One Printer allows you to even print without a computer.  Simply put almost any type of storage media into the appropriate port, and select the images you want to print with the LCD screen.

As with almost all of HP’s Photosmart line, the D110A Wireless e-All-in-One Printer works magic with photos, black in text, and color printouts.  Pushing black ink documents at the surprisingly fast speed of 29 pages per minutes and 23 pages per minute for photos and colored documents, the Photosmart D110A Wireless e-All-in-One Printer is not only one of the smallest all-in-one printers we’ve looked at, but also one of the fastest.

The scanner is of professional-grade level, capable of scanning documents of 1,200dpi optically, or 19,200dpi in enhanced mode.  The copier, while fully-functional and quite capable on its own, can only print 30 copies per each document.

Unless you actually need to be able to print more than 30 copies at a time without pressing the copy button again, HP’s Photosmart D110A Wireless e-All-in-One Printer is an incredible model for the price, and should more than solve all of your printing, copying, and scanning needs.

14: Canon PIXMA MX870 Wireless Office All-in-One Printer

Most all-in-one printers are rectangular in appearance and off-white in color - not so with Canon’s PIXMA MX870 Wireless Office All-in-One Printer.  This model, rather, is trapezoidal in shape, and while this sounds initially strange, the unique design is surprisingly effective.  

Measuring in at 19.4”x17.1”x8.9”, the PIXMA MX870 Wireless Office All-in-One Printer is pretty easy to put anywhere in your office even if you’re limited on desk top space.

Featuring an easily-read LCD display and clear, large buttons, the PIXMA MX870 Wireless Office All-in-One Printer is easy to use and look at your pictures with.  It has a wide variety of memory card slots, so no matter what type of media your camera saves images to, the PIXMA MX870 Wireless Office All-in-One Printer will almost undoubtedly be able to access it.

The printer itself is reasonable fast, capable of printing a 4x6 photo in a little bit less than 40 seconds.  It’s capable of printing black ink documents at resolutions of 600x600 dpi, and color images of 9600x2400dpi.

The scanner can pull in images at 2400x4800dpi resolution in optical mode, and 19,200x19,200dpi resolution in enhanced mode, meaning that the PIXMA MX870 Wireless Office All-in-One Printer can function as a professional-grade scanner.

Other notable functions of the PIXMA MX870 Wireless Office All-in-One Printer are the copier, which can reduce and increase image/text size, and is even capable of copying two-sided documents into two-sided printouts.

Overall, Canon’s PIXMA MX870 Wireless Office All-in-One Printer is a great printer for the value.  While it lacks some of the high end features of the most expensive all-in-one printers, the relatively cheap PIXMA MX870 Wireless Office All-in-One Printer combines great quality printing with solidly-performing additional functionality, making it a great all-in-one printer for home office use.

15: Canon PIXMA MG5220 Wireless Inkjet Photo All in One Printer

Canon's newest entry into the low price point sector of the all-in-one market performs not merely admirably for its price, but performs as if it were a significantly more expensive printer.  The sleek, high-gloss black exterior surrounds a printer of surprising value, flexibility, and options, and is a fantastic model for the price.

The PIXMA MG5220 Wireless Inkjet Photo All in One Printer is also surprisingly fast, and is capable of printing a 4 by 6 photo in about 20 seconds - significantly faster than many more expensive models.  Photos and color images come out looking great, too, with a maximum resolution of 9600x2400 color dpi. 

This high printing speed and fantastic quality can even be taken advantage of in a feature unique to this all-in-one printer: wireless printing from the iPhone, iPad, and the iPod Touch.  While this obviously isn't a feature that will be applicable to everyone, it's a great addition and makes printing images from your devices quick and easy.

Another interesting feature of the PIXMA MG5220 Wireless Inkjet Photo All in One Printer is the ability to print out still images from HD video recorded by your compatible Canon EOS Powershot camera.  Again, not a feature that everyone will use, but it's a great way to preserve and even frame memories that would have once been contained to memory cards and computer screens.

In addition to being an inexpensive printer, Canon's PIXMA MG5220 Wireless Inkjet Photo All in One Printer will also save you money and help save the environment by automatically printing on both sides of each page.

With the PIXMA MG5220 Wireless Inkjet Photo All in One Printer, Canon has delivered an all-in-one machine that sets the bar for printers in just about any price point, and is easily one of the best in the sub-$150 region that we have looked at.

The printer is easily controlled through both a 7.8" touch panel control system, and the options are displayed via a 3.5" LCD screen.  These can be used whether the Artisan 835 Color Inkjet  All in One Printer is connected to a computer or not, meaning you can easily print, crop, and edit photos and text that are on memory cards regardless of the physical location of the printer.

18: HP Deskjet 1000 All-in-One Printer

Few manufacturers have been making all-in-one printers nearly so long as HP, and they have clearly brought their long experience making great printers to bear with the Deskjet 1000 All-in-One Printer.  Despite being an amazingly inexpensive all-in-one printer, the Deskjet 1000 is a fully-featured and well-rounded machine that's great for anyone looking to outfit their home office with a basic printer.

While not designed for printing photos, the Deskjet 1000 is great for printing basic office and school documents, whether they are in color or black and white.  Text  appears crisp and clean, leaping out from the page, and color documents we printed came out vibrant and colorful.  The Deskjet 1000 All-in-One Printer also prints fairly quickly, at speeds up to 16 pages per minute in black and 12 pages per minute in color.

Although an optional feature, HP offers high-capacity ink refills for the Deskjet 1000, which can be an incredible value if you plan to do a great deal of printing.  Either way, this all-in-one printer is very effecient when printing, and we were able to print out a surprising number of full-text pages before we needed to swap in a refill cartridge.

Overall, the HP Deskjet 1000 All-in-One Printer is a great all-in-one printer for anyone with basic home printing needs.  While it doesn't have the high-end features of many all-in-one printers, its low cost makes it ideal for anyone looking to be able to print document on a budget, and makes a great dorm printer.

19: HP Officejet 6500 Wireless All-in-One Printer

Although there are a great many all-in-one printers available on the market at this point, some are significantly better than others - and HP’s Officejet 6500 Wireless All-in-One Printer is one of those better models.  While it certainly has a couple of notable flaws, the excellence of the other components of this all-in-one printer more than make up for these minor complaints.

A surprisingly professional-looking model, the Officejet 6500 Wireless All-in-One Printer features many buttons along the top panel that are capable of controlling all of the functions of the machine.  Almost entirely black in color, this HP all-in-one printer also has a portion of solid grey along its underside.  As a whole, the Officejet 6500 Wireless All-in-One Printer measures at 18.7”x18.6”x10”, making this particular printer somewhat large, so be sure you have enough room in your home office to place it.  An LCD panel sits atop the unit and is capable of displaying two lines of data, and while it is useful for configuring settings and providing information during the printing process, it is a purely utilitarian device somewhat lacking in other features or functions.

The printing speed of the Officejet 6500 Wireless All-in-One Printer is fairly fast: black ink pages at 32 pages per minutes, and 31 pages per minute for colored documents and photographs.  Whether printing black ink documents or color documents, the print quality is outstanding.  As an added feature that we found surprisingly useful, the Officejet 6500 Wireless All-in-One Printer can also print on both sides of a piece of paper with speed and accuracy.

Overall, HP’s Officejet 6500 Wireless All-in-One Printer is a fantastic all-in-one printing solution, and would serve any small office or home office quite well.  There are few printers that we could recommend more for the price, functionality, and sheer capabilities that the Officejet 6500 Wireless All-in-One Printer brings to the table.

Ten Food Articles: SEO/Original Content/Research

Below is an assignment, heavily based on SEO and keywords, that I was contracted for.  Each article title and all of the keywords within were given to me, although all of the content is based on original research.

Article 1 MasterChef Recipe

One of the most compelling aspects of MasterChef is the fact that even though you're watching the show from home, you can still prepare the foods that are created by contestants on the show for yourself, your friends, or your family.  Despite the fact that their website is filled with MasterChef recipes, we decided to share with you our favorite from a recent episode of the show: tea smoked quail in a citrus sauce.  What are your favorites?

MasterChef Recipe: Tea Smoked Quail in a Citrus Sauce

First, preheat your oven to 180°C.

Part 1: The Onions

You will need: 4 salad onions, peeled. 50g unsalted butter. 1 sprig thyme. 1 bay leaf. 2 tablespoons water.

Take the onion bulbs and put them in a ceramic, oven-proof dish.  Arrange as desired, and add the butter, thyme, sage, bay leaf and water.  Then, cover with foil, place in the oven, and bake for 35 minutes.

Part 2: The Smoked Quail

You will need: 1 tunnel boned quail. 30g butter. The zest from half of a lemon. 2 lapsang sou chong tea bags. 1 teaspoon of chopped sage. 1 teaspoon of chopped tarragon. 1 sprig thyme.

Take the butter and the lemon zest, and stuff it inside of the quail. Then, put the quail on a foil sheet, and sprinkle it with the tea, sage, tarragon and thyme.  After this, wrap the quail up, put onto a baking tray, and bake it for 20-25 minutes, allowing it to rest in the foil for about five minutes.  After removing from foil, extract and throw away lemon zest.

Part 3: The Sauce

You will need: 30g butter. 1 tablespoon grape seed oil. 2 finely chopped slices of prosciutto. A finely chopped brown onion. 1 tablespoon chopped tarragon. 2 tablespoons for flour. 2 cups of chicken consommé. The juices from a half of a lemon and orange. A tablespoon of balsamic vinegar.

Begin by heating the butter and oil over medium heat in a saucepan. Pan fry the prosciutto until it begins to crisp, and then add the onion and the tarragon, cooking until soft.  Then, stir in the flour while slowly adding consommé until mixture has thickened.  Finally, add lemon and orange juice, cooking over low heat for 15 minutes.  Then, add balsamic and then strain.

Combining the MasterChef Recipe:

Arrange the cut pieces of quail on a serving plate, and drizzle the meat with the sauce.  Set the onions on the side of the dish, and garnish with baby chive cress.

Article 2 Recipe for Barbecue 

Just because it isn't summer time yet doesn't mean that you shouldn't be getting ready for the summer barbeque season.  And by getting ready, we mean hunting down barbeque recipes, collecting them, and determining which ones are the ones that you plan to woo your friends with the most over the summer.  We decided to take a look at some of the best summer barbeque recipes out there.  If you have a favorite summer barbeque recipe though, we'd love to hear about it.  Here are some of ours:

Easy Grilled Chicken: a quick and dirty grilled chicken with an Italian zest, this recipe from allrecipes.com is a great way to open up the barbeque season.  While it will only feed a few people, it's a great way for you and your family to get some red, green, and barbeque chicken inside of you.

A rather novel barbeque recipe is a barbequed pizza!  Chances are, you'll be serving this to a crowd that's never had pizza cooked on a grill before, and it will offer a number of interesting ways to eat a fan-favorite food.  You should note, however, that cooking a pizza on a grill is a bit more complex of a process than other types of food, so make sure you prepare fully ahead of time.

A classic barbeque recipe that pretty much anyone could get behind is the grilled salmon.  While each family probably has their own favorite recipe for grilled salmon, we prefer ours to have lemon pepper, garlic powder, soy sauce, and brown sugar.  The tangy garlic and lemon combine beautifully over the open flame of a grill with the brown sugar, and the flavor of the soy sauce brings everything together for a summer fish barbeque that's simple, delicious, and unforgettable.

Our final summer barbeque recipe idea comes from allrecipes.com too - Amazing Whisky Grilled Baby Back Ribs.  Note, however, that this isn't a recipe for amateurs!  This one will take you quite awhile to make, and a great deal of work goes into the sauce and meat preparation.

So what are your favorite summer barbecue recipes?  Does your family have a barbecue meal that they open every summer with, or one that they take to the beach every year?  We'd love to hear about it!  Regardless, there's never a better time to start preparing your barbecue recipe repertoire than in the cold advance of the winter months.

Article 3 Low Calories Recipes

With the incredible proliferation of delicious foods in every imaginable place, we've all put on weight that we didn't want to.  Unfortunately, the availability of high-calorie foods doesn't seem to be going down, and they don't seem to be getting any less tasty, either.  However, there is salvation - there's an ever-growing number of wonderful low-calorie recipes out there, and we've found a few that we'd love to share with you.

The first is a desert - because we all know that the one place that's hardest to find low calorie recipes is when it comes to desserts.  Over on the Food Network's website, we found the delicious Watermelon-Tomato Skewer recipe, which looks as delicious to eat as it appears simple to make.  All that it requires is a watermelon, some cherry tomatoes, some balsamic vinegar, some olive oil, and a few basil leaves.  You won't even have to cook anything!  

Another great low calorie recipe that we've found, also on the Food Network's website, is a Seared Tuna with Mango Salsa.  Although it's a bit more complex to make than the watermelon-tomato skewer recipe, this is actually an entree-level dish that can serve an entire family if you actually decide to share it with anybody.  It continuously comes as a surprise to us that something so delicious can be as guilt-free to eat as this dish, and the mango salsa combines fabulously with the seared tuna.  An absolute must-try for cooks looking for something new to try.

Before we get on with our last low calorie recipes, what are your favorites?  Alternatively, what are some methods that you use to lower the calorie content of your favorite foods?  We tend to do the basic things, like replacing fatty milk with skim, and using light variants of cream cheese whenever possible.  While these may not amount to much, diligently aiming for low-fat, low-calorie recipe ingredients can ultimately have a big impact on your waist line. 

Our last low-calorie recipe is one that would actually go great with the tuna recipe above.  It's a Lemony Sweet and Sour Tender Veggie Salad, and this one comes straight from the beloved Rachel Ray.  This recipe is actually great for the vegetarian friend you have coming by for dinner, or even if you're just looking for a break from eating meat.  Lemony, sweet, and a bit sour, this is a delicious mixture of greens that you really can't go wrong with.

Article 4 Low Carbs Recipes

One of the most difficult types of food material to cut back on are carbs: they're inside of every bread product, all of your favorite pastas, and even in the white rice we eat with most of our meals.  In addition to focusing on cooking only low carb recipes, there are a number of things that you can do to help limit your carbohydrate intake on a daily basis.  In this article, we've compiled a few tips to help you cut back, but would love to hear some of your own advice!

First, when you head out to a restaurant to eat, ask the waiter not to bring you bread.  Generally speaking, most meals will begin with a bread service.  Instead of dealing with fighting the temptation of seeing delicious bread in front of you, cut it off before it even gets to your table.

Second, and this is one that surprises many people, is to only eat brown rice when eating Asian cuisine.  This also goes for when you're making your favorite Asian low carb recipe at home.  White rice, just like white bread, is filled with carbs and sugars, and you can cut down on each by focusing on brown rice and whole-wheat bread.  Once you adjust to the darker taste, you'll never want to go back.

A third method we've found to be successful for getting rid of carbs is to wrap all of your sandwiches in lettuce, grape leaves, or even eggplant slices instead of using bread or tortillas.  This way, you can continue to enjoy your favorite low carb recipe sandwiches and wraps without having to take in the carbs from the bread and grain of the bread or tortilla.

Another product that we all love but have come to fear to eat is the potato, but there's a simple tip that will permit you to keep eating the starchy prince without sacrificing your self-image: eat potatoes boiled with the skin on!

What may sound like a no-brainer will come as a huge surprise to other people: a great way to cut back on carbs if you're a pasta fanatic is to start cooking with whole-grain pasta instead of the standard white pasta.  This is probably our favorite way, overall, to cut back and begin utilizing low carb recipes.  That's because we absolutely love pasta and Italian food, and the prospect of getting rid of Italian food or getting rid of the stomach was an insanely difficult choice for us, and we weren't willing to go down without a fight.

Article 5 Recipes on Pasta

Now that we're well into the grip of Father Winter, we decided that it was high time to look to some new variants on our favorite foods of all time: pasta!  In this article on pasta recipes, we'll take a look at some innovative ways to cook and prepare that most delicious of carbohydrates in ways that you, your friends, and your family will all love.

To kick things off, we'll start with a recipe from one of our favorite independent cooking websites: Smitten Kitchen.  One of our favorite pasta recipes from Smitten Kitchen is the Summer Pea and Roasted Red Pepper Salad.  Like most of the recipes found on Smitten Kitchen, it's pretty easy to make, requires only few ingredients, and is a quick build up process.  This recipe features shell pasta, snow peas, and red peppers roasted in a vinaigrette, and couldn't be more well-suited to a warm summer evening with the family.

A second delicious pasta recipe that we found was the Angel Chicken Pasta from allrecipes.com.  Ideal for the chicken lovers in your family, this recipe features a delightful white-wine and cream-cheese taste that will come as a huge surprise to anyone that thinks they've tasted every type of pasta there is to taste.

Upon reading back through this section of pasta recipes, it has come to our attention that we don't have any recipes for making the pasta itself!  While there are a ton of them on the Internet that we could easily look up, we were wondering what your favorites were.  We tend to like whole-wheat grain pasta instead of the standard white, and if you've got a special method of making it, we'd love to hear it!

However, one pasta recipe that we don't need to ask anyone for recommendations for because we know already that it's wonderful is the Angel Hair Pasta with Black Truffles recipe from cooksrecipes.com.  It's pretty easy to make, requires only angel hair pasta, truffle oil, Parmesan cheese, a single black truffle, and some fresh chives.  While it may not be the boldest pasta dish that we've ever had, it's certainly one of the best comfort foods that we've ever written about.

Pasta recipes aren't just about the noodles, or the cheese, or the meat that goes into them: they're about the legacy of pasta.  For most of us, pasta is a tremendous comfort food, a family food, a food that always reminds us of the best times of our lives.  What is pasta to you?

Article 6 Recipes on Steak

Let's face it: there is no food more manly, more reminiscent of summer, or more utterly fulfilling that a big, juicy steak.  However, steak isn't just a piece of meat thrown over a fire and then promptly served; rather, the best steak recipes are works of both art and love, requiring time and dedication to perfect.  A perfectly prepared steak can be a meal that a man will remember for years to come, or a blandly prepared steak can be one forgotten about as soon as the plate is removed.  Below, we've gathered some of our favorite steak recipes to ensure you'll never prepare a bad steak.

 However, before we begin, we're curious: what's the best steak that you've ever had?  We aren't necessarily looking for recipes here, but we are curious.  Is your favorite steak dependent on the cut?  What about the rub, or the spices, or the side dishes?  We suspect this answer will be different for everyone.

For our money, one of the best straight up steak recipes that we found was the Sirloin Steak with Garlic Butter.  It's a simple, but delicious way to prepare this most wonderful of meats.  Really, it doesn't even take that much to prepare: some butter, some garlic powder, some minced garlic cloves, a few high-quality beef top sirloin steaks, and some salt and pepper.  All that's involved in this simple steak recipe is grilling the meat to the desired level, applying the butter, and enjoying.  And enjoying. And enjoying!

Another fantastic steak recipe that we came across online over at epicurious.com is the Grilled Porterhouse Steak with Paprika-Parmesan Butter.  This steak recipe is a bit more complex to make than the Garlic Butter Sirloin Steak talked about above, but the extra work in preparation is well worth the effort.  A unique, bold way to grill a steak, this is a great steak recipe to bring out and show off to all of the neighbors.  After eating your paprika-parmesan butter, they'll never want to eat a grilled steak anywhere but your place again.

Nothing says summertime or a great dinner quite the way that a perfectly made steak does.  While there are many steak recipes out there, it's rare that you'll find one that is both easy to prepare and delicious to eat.  Most steak recipes are bland, and are nothing but pepper - but that's why you come here, so we can help point you in the direction of all of the best steak recipes out there.

Article 7 Recipes for a Crockpot

For many of us, there are few foods in all of the world that make us think of our mom's cooking quite the way that recipes for a Crockpot will.  There's something about the delicate, slow-cooked taste of meat or roasted vegetables that just screams mom, and with this in mind, we've hunted down some recipes for the Crockpot that will make your kitchen finally start to remind you of home again.

Our first recipe is an easy one, and it's a great one for people that want to have a dinner prepared for them by the time they get home.  The Baked Slow Cooker Chicken Crockpot recipe from allrecipes.com is a fantastic and easy meal - all that you'll need is a two or three pound chicken and a teaspoon of paprika and some time.  In fact, all that this recipe requires is that you clean and dress the chicken, and then stick it in the slow cooker nine to ten hours.  This means you can set it up before you leave for work, and come home to the delicious taste of baked chicken.

What are your favorite ways to use a Crockpot?  While there are certainly a ton of slow cooker recipes out there, you can use a Crockpot for a wide variety of things - not just preparing meat.  While all of our favorite recipes are chicken roasted inside of a Crockpot, we're curious what our readers favorite slow cooker uses are.

Personally, my favorite is a recipe that I first found on thatsmyhome.com: Slow Cooker Italian Herb Chicken.  While it is a fairly involved recipe that combines crimini mushrooms, tomato sauce, and a great many different types of herbs, this slow cooker recipe is a complex, warm, and deep taste that will put a smile on the face of everyone in your family.  Note, however, that this recipe takes about six hours, so it may be difficult to time if you're looking at a full working day.

Regardless of how you choose to use your slow cooker, there's a Crockpot recipe for just about any household that will suit just about any taste palette.  For many families, the Crockpot defines an entire day of the week, and if you're anything like my family growing up, every Sunday will be Potroast Night.  What will Sunday night be for yours?

Article 8 Recipe for Lasagna

All right.  Sit back.  Close your eyes.  Now, think of what Italian food means to you.  Sure, spaghetti with meatballs, maybe a calzone or a pizza, possibly a more formal pasta dish.  Maybe some bread with olive oil, a nice wine, some nice cheese.  But let's face it: these aren't the best Italian foods.  They might be close, but the best Italian food is also the most time-intensive to make: lasagna.  In this article, we've compiled some of the best Italian lasagna recipes that we could find on the Internet and brought them directly to you, taste-tested and family-approved.

Our first lasagna recipe entry is a bit of a strange one, but if the response that we got from our families is any indication, it's one of the best ones out there: Barbecue Lasagna, courtesy of allrecipes.com.  Unlike some other lasagna recipes, this barbecue lasagna recipe isn't terrible difficult or time-intensive to make, but it is somehow more delicious than most other lasagna recipes.  All that you'll need for it are lasagna noodles, some pulled pork in BBQ sauce, an egg, and a few different kinds of cheese.  We can whole heartedly recommend this lasagna recipe for anyone looking for a novel and fun way to prepare this Italian classic.

While our next lasagna recipe is our favorite, we were curious what your favorite lasagna recipe was.  There are a ton of them out there!  Do you have one that's been in your family for generations, or one that you've just recently picked up?  Is there a store in town that makes a surprisingly good lasagna, or would you not be caught dead with a store-bought delicacy?  Let us know in the comments!

Our ultimate lasagna recipe is well-named by allrecipes.com: World's Best Lasagna.  This delicious piece of pasta heaven is chock-full of sausage, ground beef, cheese, tomato sauce, and a ton of spices and textures.  No matter how you feel about lasagna in general, this World's Best Lasagna has something in it for pretty much everyone.

You should note, however, that lasagna recipes are not to be tried by everyone!  They can be incredibly time-intensive tasks, and the slightest error can throw off the entire recipe, ruining it.  That said, the only way to find out if you're good enough to prepare lasagna is to try it - and either of these two lasagna recipes are great places to start.

Article 9 Easy and Quick Recipes

Life, lately, has become busy.  Not just for me, not just for you, but for just about everybody.  While there are certain things that none of us are willing to sacrifice just because we're busy, preparing foods is often not one of them.  In fact, the busier people get, the more infrequently they tend to cook, and the more difficult it is for them to dedicate adequate amounts of time to.  But that does not mean that you have to stop cooking and eating delicious foods!  We've found a few wonderful easy and quick recipes that will fill your stomach but won't take up your whole day to prepare.

One of our favorites comes from simplyrecipes.com, and is the Apple Chicken Quesadilla.  This recipe is incredibly easy to make - all that it requires is about ten minutes over the frying pan, provided that you have already cooked the chicken.  It has the added benefit of being a surprisingly kid-friendly food that tastes great, making this a fantastic lunch for the kids when they have a half-day of school.

On that note, what are your favorite half-day lunches for the kids?  There are a bunch of different options, but chances are, what you feed yourself for lunch is probably going to be different than what you feed the kids.  We like quick and easy things that are healthy but things the kids will like.  How about you?

One of my personal favorite easy and quick recipes also comes from simplyrecipes.com - the Broccoli Stir Fry with Ginger and Sesame.  Like the writer, I have insane cravings for broccoli.  It's my comfort food, my after-bar food, and my ideal lunch food.  So you can imagine my surprise when I stumbled across this recipe and had to make it immediately, and was delighted to find that it was easy and quick to prepare.  And, perhaps more importantly, it was delicious, as it combines several of m favorite tastes with one of my passions - doing things quickly.

While there is something to be said for spending all day preparing a meal, sometimes we just can't make time - and that's where easy and quick recipes like the ones above come in so handy.  Regardless of which of these you choose to make, we advise either bookmarking or printing them off and keeping them somewhere easy to get to so that you'll always be able to create quick and easy foods exactly when you need them.

Article 10 Easy Dessert Recipes

Most of us can admit to a few things: we love a great pasta dish.  There are some vegetables we enjoy more than others.  We possibly have a small weakness for cheesy bread-type dishes.  But there's one thing that all of us have in common: we all love desserts!  However, cooking and preparing desserts can be an incredibly time-consuming process.  But that doesn't mean you can't eat dessert if you don't have time!  We've created a small listing of some quick and easy dessert recipes that you, your friends, and your family can all enjoy.

Over at About.com's fantastic cooking section, busybooks.about.com, we found this wonderful recipe for Graham Cracker Sandwiches.  If you have Graham crackers, then you probably already have everything you'll need to prepare these - and the whole process only takes about ten minutes!  These tasty treats can serve as a wonderful after-school snack for the kids, and work great as a cookout dessert too.  There's only one bad thing about them: they're so easy to make that you'll be tempted to make - and eat - too many yourself!

Our second quick and easy dessert recipe is also from busycooks.about.com, and they hail this recipe as being so quick and easy that the kids could make it on their own.  Think of that - your kids making YOU dessert!  Well, while that probably won't happen, it doesn't mean that their Chocolate Nut Toffee recipe isn't wonderful, sweet, and incredibly easy to prepare.  With a total preparation time of around 30 minutes, you can have this toffee prepared and on its way into mouths while you're tending to other parts of a meal, or even on the run before a potluck dinner.

While these are two of our favorite quick and easy dessert recipes, we're well aware that they aren't the only ones!  What quick dessert recipes do you like to prepare after a bad day at the office?  What about when you're going to a big social potluck gathering when you won't know many people?  Do you have a dessert recipe that you're particularly well-known for that is secretly easy to make?

If you do, send it on in!  We'd love to feature it on our web site, and we'll be sure to give you full credit.  Even if you don't have a quick and easy dessert recipe, what are your favorite downtime snacks that don't require much time to prepare?
