Overview
The Dell 1355CNW is a multi-function laser printer which is sold at a low enough price point to be accessible to virtually any home or small business user. There are plenty of laser printers on the market which are capable of higher levels of performance than the Dell 1355cnw, but the vast majority of them are more expensive; many of them substantially so. Because of this nice balance between capability and affordability, this printer will prove more than adequate for the vast majority of users. The only people who should look to other printers would be those who either need to print large jobs frequently or those who seldom need to print anything at all.
Pros
One of the pros of the Dell 1355CNW which we would like to point out is the fact that it's small. Laser printers can get large, sometimes requiring you to create new space in your home or office when you purchase one. While you may indeed need to do so even with this model, you will need significantly less space with this printer than with lots of other ones. Yet, despite its small size, it packs quite a punch in terms of its maximum monthly duty cycle. As a matter of fact, this printer can handle no less than thirty thousand pages per month without overheating or experiencing any other technical problems.
Another pro of the Dell 1355CNW is the very fact that it's multi-functional. Not only is it less expensive than a lot of other laser printers on the market, it's obviously also quite a bit less expensive than purchasing a printer, a scanner, a fax, machine, and a copier separately. When you remember its small size which we mentioned a moment ago, you realize that that it makes just as much of a difference in terms of space savings as it does in terms of financial savings. We should also note that the functionality of all of these devices will be available to your entire wireless network, too, thanks to this machine's WiFi capability.
Cons
If you're using the Dell 1355CNW in an office, or if you print a larger-than-average number of documents at home, then you will experience one of the things about this printer which we don't like very much. Its tray only holds one hundred sixty sheets, and you cannot purchase additional input trays. Another drawback is that this printer is more than a little slow. It's page-per-minute speeds of fifteen for black and white and twelve for color are well below the industry standard.

Dell 2155CDN Printer Review
Overview
The Dell 2155CDN laser printer is an excellent product that is ideal for use in homes, medium sized businesses, and bigger ones that simply don't print that often. It boasts remarkable performance at a mid-market price. Obviously, if you search for them, there are other printers available that can outperform this one, yet it's also true that this model bests many other comparable devices. This Dell can surpass expectations, and you'll no doubt be happy with its performance. While there is a slight drawback in the form of print quality to price ratio, as you'll see, the benefits far outweigh that downside.
Pros
The Dell 2155CDN laser printer boasts a maximum monthly load of forty thousand pages. While that might not mean much to you, the fact is that most business users and a lot of home office buyers look at that number closely. What a maximum monthly load means is that this printer can produce forty thousand pages a month before experiencing overheating or other technical issues. Another feature that many potential buyers look at is the number of pages the printer tray can hold. This one boasts a larger than average number of two hundred and fifty sheets. Add in the ability to buy an additional tray, and this device can hold an entire ream of paper! While it's a minor inconvenience at best, it's refreshing not to have to add paper in the middle of a large job.
Even if you don't know much about the technical specifications of a printer, speed will most likely be a factor in your buying decision. No one wants to wait around a long time for their jobs to print. Luckily, the Dell 2155CDN boasts a speed of twenty-four pages per minute! Of course, with increased speed comes larger size. You can find printers that will be smaller, but they also print at a slower rate. Furthermore, since this product is really four devices in one (printer, copier, scanner, and fax), you'll still saving yourself space (and money) in the long run.
Cons
Now, every printer has its advantages and its disadvantages, and this one is no different. With the Dell 2155CDN, the ratio of print quality to price is worse than that of other similar products on the market. Other devices in the same price range can have a print resolution of 600 x 1200 dpi (dots per inch). This printer, however, has a resolution of 600 x 600 dpi. Of course, it is also faster than these others, and it is also multi-functional, two factors you must consider.

Dell 2155CN Printer Review
Overview
The Dell 2155cn is a laser printer that offers many features that allow you to get the job done with value and execution. This printer offers features that are both good and bad. The good features include a sufficient printing speed, a big tray for holding paper, and 256MB of memory already installed. The bad features include being bulky and big in design and it does not offer duplex features that are automatic.
Pros
This printer does not offer the highest resolution that you see in other multifunctional printers, but it does produce pictures that are lucid, vivid, and have wonderful color at 600x600 dots per inch. This laser printer allows up to 40,000 pages per month, which is not meant to cause any damage to the printer or major wear and tear.
The printing speeds you would find on a normal printer are basically what you will find with the Dell 2155cn. It does print in both black and white and color, at a rate of 24 pages each minute. Since there is not an automatic duplex option available so the only way that you can print on both sides of the paper is to perform this function manually.
The Dell 2155cn does offer other options that improve the printers functioning ability. There is an Ethernet port which allows the user to network multiple computers to the printer. While there are not any built-in wireless options if does have a port for an external wireless device. It also has the ability to print from a flash drive or camera as it has a USB 2.0 port.
The laser printer comes equipped with a paper tray that will hold 250 pages. The ability to hold so much paper helps cut down on restocking frequently. The printer can use all kinds of paper from original and dense paper, envelopes, labels, postcards and coated paper. If you have paper that measures 8.5 x 14 inches, it can print on that as well. While it offers installed memory it is not Energy Star rated.
Cons
This printer takes up a large space as it is large and heavy. It measures in at 22.81 inches tall, 17.1 inches wide, and 21 inches thick, which is some of the greatest factors on a laser printer. Not only is it bulky but it weighs 66 pounds.
The control panel is set on the top of the device and has a small screen that will help you with the printer's options and settings. The printer has quite a few buttons, and the display panel makes it confusing to use.
While this laser printer offers many functions it does have its setbacks. These include duplex printing, largeness, and interface issues. But overall it does have a lot of functions that make it a very usable laser printer for an office. The ability to network and the large amount of installed memory is definitely a bonus on this printer. Also the ability to hold a large amount of paper makes it convenient.

How to Find Your Printer Manufacturer
With several printer brands having invaded the market, it is particularly hard to choose the best one. The problem is rather complex, since every manufacturer is now coming up with printers having the latest features incorporated in them, like the Continuous Ink Supply system and All-In-One printing. Some brands, however, stand out from other based on their price, features and reliability. The best way to figure out which manufacturer you should buy from is to go through the general features every manufacturer has to offer and, then, to review particular models.
Hewlett Packard
When it comes to affordable printers, HP has been regarded by many as the best value for money. These printers come in cheaper prices than most Canon and Espon models, thus being more easily affordable. The printers are highly reliable, with the most popular models being 7510 All-In-One and the Multifunction Laser-jet Pro series. The former is particularly popular due to the LCD touch screen. In general, HP printers are inexpensive, easy to set up and to use.
Epson
Epson is yet another common brand, with models available from as low as $50 up to $300. The most successful models, perhaps, are those in the Workforce Pro series. The printers have been rated to be easy to set up and simple to use, particularly due to their wireless function. The color printing capability has been particularly appreciated by users, as has the photo printing quality. Espon beats others with its warranty offers, which allows a replacement free of cost. Also, the printer ink is much more affordable than that of other manufacturers.
Brother
Brother printers are widely used, owing to the fact that they offer models priced as low as $99. With their affordability and automatic duplex, they have been widely preferred. The more costly models in the HL and Brother series are also particularly reliable. The printing is fast, with a good text output. Many users, however, have faced troubles with beginning to use their printers and complain of the set-up being complicated.
Canon
Considering ink jet printers, Canon printers are probably the fastest. From usual prints to professional photos, the results of Canon printers have been great. At average, Canon printers are priced higher than other famous ones like HP and Espon. These are, however, reliable and long lasting. From the 6-color Pixma series to photo printers like Canon Selphy, the printers are particularly durable, though some models, like the Pixma MG6150, have been accused of using enormous volumes of ink at every start-up and facing occasional pauses during printing.
