How to Choose a Printer for Home Office?

This is an important section especially for those who are not well-informed about the various aspects of a printer.

Once you’ve completed reading the comprehensive buyers guide that we’ve come up with, you would be able to make an informed buying decision.

So, it’s my humble request to all my readers to not SKIP this buyer’s guide section as it is full of information that you might be looking for.

Inkjet Vs. Laser: Which Printer Should I Buy for My Home Office?

Frankly speaking, you can opt for either Inkjet or Laser depending upon your needs and requirements.

However, I’ll try to help you by providing adequate information regarding the two.

Inkjet printers use cartridges of ink that are applied wet to the paper and rapidly dry.

On the contrary, laser printers use toner, a type of ink dust that bonds to the paper for fast results as well as efficient resource use.

As per my knowledge and experience, I can say that laser prints are a good bet for office settings, be it a home office or a corporate one especially when most of the printing that you do on a day-to-day basis is in monochrome.

The monochrome laser printers are worth the investment and there is more than one reason for it for sure.

As compared to a color inkjet printer, a monochrome laser printer prints at a lower cost per page.

Not only are the laser printers affordable but also offer good printing speed.

But, at the same time, color inkjet printers come with their own sets of pros and cons.

In terms of flexibility, the color inkjet printers score higher than the laser printers for sure.

Unlike monochrome laser printers, the color laser printer comes with a higher per page printing cost and most probably would exceed the per page printing cost of a color inkjet.

In terms of page yields, a laser printer scores really well as the toner used by it needs to be replaced only after it has printed approximately 18,000 to 20,000 pages.

But, if you’re using an inkjet printer then you’ll have to replace the cartridge after 2,000 pages.

Should I Buy a Multifunctional Printer for my Home Office?

Of course, a multifunctional printer could be a great option for your home office as it is capable of scanning and faxing along with printing.

These printers are popularly known as “all-in-one” printers and are available in both inkjet and laser types.

To be honest, for a home office, a multifunction printer makes a lot of sense, indeed.

An “all-in-one” printer is cheaper as compared to buying a printer and a standalone scanner separately.

Should I opt for a photo printer?

A photo printer isn’t as flexible as a multitasking printer but at the same time, the quality of printing is far better as compared to a photo printer, indeed.

Even the supplies for a photo printer are also expensive as compared to a multitasking printer.

However, if your requirement is to preserve certain essential documents then you can consider a single function dedicated photo printer.

How important are the parameters’ color, resolution, and speed?

Frankly speaking, features such as color, resolution, and speed are relative, and not absolute so you can select these parameters as per your requirements.

Let’s understand it with an example.

A printer with a certain speed may be sufficient for me but might not cater to your needs.

So, you need to be very careful while making a final call on these parameters.

Moving further, I would be discussing certain abbreviations to help you understand the technical phrase associated with a printer.

PPM stands for pages per minute, and tells you about the printer speed.

Average black and white PPM is somewhere around 15 to 20 pages.

On the other hand, color PPM is slightly less and averages somewhere around 10 to 15 pages per minute.

DPI stands for “dots per inch”.

In simple words, DPI tells you about how many dots of ink the printer can apply to a square inch of paper.

DPI is mainly used to measure the quality of resolution as well as image detailing.

Duty cycle is an important term as it depicts the number of pages per month a printer can be expected to print.

Once you’ve got this number handy, make sure that you don’t print pages above this number in order to prevent the printer from getting tear and wear.

Moreover, if your home office has lots to do with daily printing then definitely, you should keep a track of this number without fail.

Connectivity

Always look for the printer that comes with multiple connectivity options.

Let’s have a look at some of the connectivity that your printer should possess if you’re planning to use it for your home office.

USB: Most of the printers available on the market come with a USB connection.

It’s a very useful connection if you don’t wanna use your computer as a go-between.

The benefit of the USB connection is that you can directly print files from a variety of devices.

Ethernet: An Ethernet port is an easy way for a wired connection to the internet.

A wired ethernet connection is definitely good for a home office printer.

Wi-Fi: Needless to say, most of the home office printers that made our list are designed to connect directly to your Wi-Fi network.

The thing that I really admire about a Wi-Fi connection is the flexibility that it comes with.

In fact, it allows you to remotely to a home office and could be of great help for WFH situations.

Wi-Fi Direct: Well, to be honest, Wi-Fi Direct has nothing to do with your Wi-Fi network.

In fact, it’s simply a peer-to-peer connection and establishes a secure signal between a device and the printer.

For on the spot printing, Wi-Fi direct could be of great help as it is both safe and quick.

NFC: NFC is abbreviated as Near-Field Communication, and this type of connection allows you to connect your printer to a smartphone or tablet by simply touching the device to a specified area on the printer.

Cloud Printing: This internet-based feature allows you to access photos stored on sites such as Facebook, Flickr, Dropbox, and Google Drive as well as remote printing.

However, you wouldn’t be able to reap the benefit of cloud printing if your printer isn’t connected to the internet.

SD Cards: Well, some printers do have slots for SD cards, which you can navigate through using the printer’s menu and choose select files to get printed.

To be honest, SD cards might not be very helpful for a home office until and unless you’re a photographer who wants to transfer SD cards directly from the camera to the printer.

Ink Cost

In general, Ink cost shouldn’t be a point of concern until and unless you’re using your home office printer extensively including a remote situation that requires hard copies.

Though you can measure ink cost per page still the efficiency depends to a large extent on the type of printer model that you’re using and the way it is designed.

For example, if you’re using a high-quality premium printer that it would cost you as low as 4 cents per black and white page and 8 cents per colored page.

On the other hand, if you’re using an affordable home office printer then the cost might increase by a couple of cents.

However, a high-quality premium home office printer can only make a huge difference in terms of ink cost if you’re printing loads and loads of pages every month.

Should I Buy a Home Office Printer that comes with a Duplexing Feature?

Well, a quite of the newbie wouldn’t be aware of what Duplexing is, right?

So, duplexing is nothing but the two-sided printing or scanning.

Of course, I would suggest, you should look for a home office printer that comes with an auto-duplexing feature.

In simple words, duplexing refers to printing or scanning both sides of the page without the requirement of manually flipping the page over.

So, if you’re NOT aware of how the duplexing works on a home office printer, then please allow me to explain it to you.

The first step in duplexing is to to print the first side of the page.

Then, the printer pulls the page back through the printer.

And, lastly, flip it over and print the other side.

If your all-in-one home office printer comprises of an automatic document feeder for scanner then the probability is very high that your printer would be having a duplexing feature allowing you to scan both sides of the page as document feeds through the ADF.

Paper Handling

If you’re home office printer demands loads and loads of document printing then definitely, you should look for a printer that would ease out paper handling.

For example,  a 250-page hopper would make things more convenient for you as compared to a smaller tray.

Meanwhile, it’s good to have a home office printer that comes with dedicated feed trays for printing on specialty papers with unusual sizes or different weights.

Not only that, some home office printers even come with an optional second tray that makes it feasible for you to use a different paper stock, check stock, or even double the paper capacity so you don’t have to refill the paper supply too often.

Warranty

Frankly speaking, always look for the home office printers that come with a warranty.

In simple words, the more the warranty period the better it is.

A longer duration of warranty simply depicts the confidence and trust that the manufacturer has in its offering.

However, on the other side, you shouldn’t buy a printer that doesn’t come with a warranty.

Price

Another very important parameter that can make or break a buying decision is none other than the price.

Yes, you heard it, RIGHT.

Well, if you’re on a shoestring budget then it would be really difficult for you to buy a premium home printer irrespective of whether you liked the features or not.

So, it’s always advisable to look for a home office printer that NOT only caters to your home office printing needs but also falls well within your budget.

Epson Vs. Brother: Which One Should I Buy?

Frankly speaking, choosing between an Epson and a Brother home printer isn’t as difficult as you might think it to be.

Well, if you’re looking for a dependable reliable high-quality inkjet printer then my suggestion to you would be to go with an Epson printer.

On the other hand, if you’re looking for a printer for your personal use in the “affordable” category then Brother printers could be a great choice, indeed.

In fact, Brother printer comes with low-cost laser printing so if you’re on a shoestring budget then you can try it.

Canon Vs. HP Home Office Printer: Which One to Choose?

Frankly speaking, both the brands are worth the investment.

However, I’m sure you’re here for a conclusion statement and not a generic one, right?

So, we would be comparing both these brands on a couple of parameters including Ink cost, Text and photo print quality, and the print speed comparison.

Ink Cost

As per Tom’s Guide RESEARCH, in order to print a text page with the help of a standard cartridge of any Canon printer, you may have to spend 8.3 cents per page.

On the other hand, an HP home office printer would incur the cost of around 9.2 cents per page.

Again, all these costs are approximate and can vary largely depending upon the performance of the cartridge, etc.

Wait, we’ve data for color page printing as well.

Canon ink would cost you somewhere around 21.1 cents per page whereas HP ink cost would touch 23.3 cents per page.

Text and Photo Print Quality

My claims are purely based on Tom’s Guide that has compared quite a few popular models of both the brands in terms of both text and photo print quality, and you know what, Canon has a slightly upper edge here as well.

However, you should also understand the printing quality depends on quite a few parameters including printer model, type of paper, and setting.

Print Speed

As per Tom’s Guide, among all the models of Canon and HP that they compared, the Canon printers were the winners in terms of speed.

While printing text documents, Canon printers showed the highest speed of up to 9.8 pages per minute (ppm) as compared to 9.1 ppm of HP printers.

In terms of color printouts, the fastest Canon printer scored 3.1 ppm, while an HP one – only 2.6 ppm.

Takeaway

Though Canon has dominated the test with a tangible margin still HP isn’t far behind.

And, irrespective of what Tom’s Guide has to say, I would go with an HP home printer because of the user-friendliness, customer service, and value proposition.

Again, it’s my personal view which is based on the feedback that I’ve received from my clientele as well as my own.

Rest assured, any of the two you opt for, you’ll never REGRET your investment, that’s all I can say as of now.
