► Pantum P2200 Single-Function Laser Printer

Pantum is a Chinese printer brand and a well-recognized name for laser printers. Its P2200 single-function printer is currently one of the fastest-moving laser printers in the India market. This single-function laser printer with a 15000 monthly duty cycle is an ideal choice for photocopy center and office use. I wouldn’t recommend it for home use since it is a heavy-duty laser printer without wireless printing support.

Usually, printers have high-quality plastic bodies. This Pantum laser printer, however, has a metal body. Thus, the build and design of this printer are outstanding. No doubt about it.

Pantum P2200 is a fast printer, and it prints — up to legal size sheets, in excellent quality. However, its per-page print cost is very high. According to the brand the per-page print cost is approx. 1-Rupee.

There are many laser printers in the 6000 to 8000 Rupees price range, which can print A4 documents in excellent quality at 20 to 40 paisa per page. Currently, the best single-function laser printer in the 7000 Rupees range is Brother L2321D. Alternatively, you could consider the ink-tank printer of Canon and Epson from the same price range.

Moreover, this printer is compatible with many paper sizes and paper types.

Multi-functionality with wireless connectivity: This might seem absurd, but the Canon E3170 challenges some bigger photo printers like the HP 410 Multifunction printer. This is because this Canon printer can do all three basic office jobs seamlessly. It can print, scan and also create copies of documents. What’s even more, this gadget supports border-less photo printing. Are you looking for the best home photo printer on a 6000 Rupees budget? Here it is.

Its Photo printing speed is just about the same as that of the HP410. On average, it will print a 4 x 6-inch borderless photo in about 60 to 70 seconds. Canon also integrated One-Touch Direct Wireless printing technology into this device. Other features in this printer include Automatic ON and OFF switching and USB 2.0 High-Speed connectivity.

► HP 3777 All-in-One Color Printer

The HP DeskJet 3777 is somewhat a compact printer. De facto, it is really striking that HP has accomplished to pack in manifold lineaments like scanning, copying, printing, and wireless connectivity in such a compact maneuver. The brand entitles that this is the domain's smallest All-in-One' printing device. However, regardless of that, the 3777 recollects its ultimate printer look. A seven-segment LCD display located at the top right angle is another glee. In addition, connectivity ports are positioned at the posterior side.

No WHIRRRRRRRRRRING noise anymore! What is your steady impression of a printer?

► Canon E4270 Multifunction Printer

It wouldn’t be wrong to say that the Canon printer is the best budget printer in India market. Therefore, it is the best multifunction printer under 7000 Rupees for home use.

There is no printer in the market, in 5000 to 10000 Rupees range at present, with features as many as this Canon color printer has. Canon E4270 multifunction printer has all the features. It can print regular papers, photo papers, stickers, and also magnetic papers.

Are you looking for a printer to make multiple copies of photos? Get Canon E4270. This wireless printer can also copy on photo paper and glossy paper.

Maintenance cost of this Canon printer will be not so affordable, though. It prints in high-quality, so it requires expensive cartridges that drain quickly during printing and copying.

► Canon Pixma G1010 Ink-Tank Color Printer

Are you looking for a reliable printer to reduce monthly outflow on printing documents from a few thousand rupees to just a few hundred rupees? The Canon ink tank printer G1010 is currently the most affordable printer to lower your monthly expenditure on printing documents. It is a single-function printer meaning it can only print. This printer can print in Black & White and Color.

The print speed of this canon single-function printer is not that great but its per page print cost is really cheap. If the brand’s claims are to be believed laser page print cost is 8 Paisa and color page print cost is just 21 Paisa. In this article, you are also going to read about an HP DeskJet printer, whose color print cost is 4.5 Rupees, and laser print cost 1.4 Paisa.

Ink Tank Printer vs. Cartridge Printer: Printing cost on Ink Tank printers is much cheaper than the cartridge and toner-based printers. That is a settled fact. Therefore, if you want to reduce printing cost to a mere 10 Paisa per page, opt for an ink-tank printer. In this website’s office, we use an HP ink-tank printer. Since its color print out cost is less than 50 Paisa, we take only color printouts.

Canon Pixma G1010 competes with another outstanding ink-tank printer in 7000 Rupees price range, Epson L130. This Epson printer price is 7800 Rupees currently and it is also a single-function printer. One thing I can say with full surety that both are the outstanding printer for home, office, and business use. Which one is best in them is hard to suggest.

Should you buy this Canon printer? The only noticeable difference between both the printers is their print speed. The Epson ink-tank printer can print up to 27 pages per minute whereas the Canon ink-tank printer can only 8 Pages. Thus, you can decide better, which one to buy based on your trust in the brand, your requirement, and the price of the printers.

☼ Canon E3370 Multifunction Color Printer

The Canon printer is currently the best color multifunction printer in 5000 Rupees range for those who need a reliable and long-lasting printing machine for home use. Print, copy, and scan with wireless connectivity are the main features of the Canon Pixma E3370 printer. This printer prints photos on photo cards in studio quality. And, it prints documents in high quality as well. With the Wireless Pict-bridge feature, it can connect to a camera and accept print commands directly. Scanning and copying of legal-size documents are not possible in the absence of the ADF feature, however, it can print them.

Auto ON/OFF is an excellent feature of the Canon E3370 printer. If the power supply to the printer is through, the machine will Auto On when a print command hits it. Similarly, if the printer is not used for a certain period, it will Auto-Off. In daily-to-day usages, such a feature provides great relief.

Costly cartridge and thereby costly per page printing & copying will be a big headache if you own the Canon E3370 printer model. Not having Auto-Duplex and ADF features on this Canon multifunction color printer is a concern as well.

☼ Canon E4570 Multi-Function Printer

The latest Canon color printer is unarguably one of the best multifunction printers in India market.  It comes with almost all those features and functions that general use printers must have.

The Canon E4570 printer can print, copy, and scan. Also, it has the feature of Fax. With wireless connectivity, it can take print commands wirelessly from any Wi-Fi Ready device. It also has an auto-duplex printing feature for printing both sides of a paper automatically. And, thanks to its Auto Document Feeder, print, copy, and scan of legal papers is possible. Currently, the Canon E4570 model is the only printer under 10000 Rupees with that many features and functions.

Who should buy the Canon printer? Canon E4570 printer is an ideal printer for home use and manager’s cabin. Since it is a cartridge-based printer, its per-page print cost is very high. Therefore, it may not be a perfect printer for business and office use.

► HP M17w Single-Function Laser Printer

The HP laser printer is one of the best laser printers in the Indian market for home use. Why is it a home use laser printer? Because it is compact, less noisy, and fast. Also, it has Wi-Fi connectivity options wherein Wi-Fi Direct is included.

I need a laser printer for my photocopy business. Should I consider the HP M17w printer?

NO! Because the per-page print cost on this HP laser printer is very high, more than ₹1 apparently. You should consider the Brother B2000D laser printer for business in the 10000 Rupees range. It requires the Brother Toner B021, which is a revolutionary toner per se. The cost of an original Brother Toner B021 is just ₹850. And, one toner will last for close to 2000 A4 prints.

The HP M17w printer, despite its high per-page print cost, is an excellent laser printer for home use, and personal use for 10000 Rupees. It has many qualities that make it a perfect option. We discussed all its essential features and functions in our video presentation, which is linked below.

► HP 316 Ink-Tank Multi-Function Printer

Is the HP 316 a better printer than Canon G2012? Why should these two printers be compared? Because they are available in the same price range. HP 316 ink-tank printer is not a better printer than the Canon G2012 ink-tank printer. Not in terms of build quality, though.

Both branded printers have similar features, functions, and print speeds. But the Canon printer can print HQ photos in studio quality. Also, it comes with two additional black ink bottles, saving up to 1300 Rupees for the user. Therefore, it is a better choice than the HP ink-tank printer.

However, if you need an ink tank for personal use, then the HP 316 could be a decent option. I will recommend it for home use, not for business use and photo studio.

► Epson L3110 Multi-Function Ink-Tank Printer

The Epson ink-tank printer is one of the top-rated multifunction printers under 10000 Rupees. It is an excellent printer for photocopy centers.

Epson L3110 is a multifunction printer so it can print, copy, and scan. It can print in color as well as in black & white. It is not an ideal printer for photo printing, though. Of course, this printer can print photos, but Its print quality does not make it a perfect photo printer. Epson does not promote it as a photo printer, either.

Consider one of these printers if you are looking for an ink-tank printer for photo printing: Canon G2012, Canon G3000, Canon G3012, and Epson L805. Epson L3110 printer usages 357 nozzles whereas the suggested Canon printers have more than 1400 nozzles in their print head to drop ink on paper. This will comparison will give a fair idea of print quality.

Other cons of this Epson ink tank printer are its cheap plastic build, manual duplex, and no wireless printing support. It cannot scan legal-size paper, either. Then why it is reviewed in this article which covers the best multifunction printers under 10000 Rupees?

Per page print cost on cartridge-based printers, irrespective of brand is 1.5 to 10 rupees for laser, color, and photo printouts. However, on Epson L3110 ink-tank printer, the same is below 50 Paise. Epson brand provides 4 ink bottles with this multifunction printer. Those bottles will last up to 3000 to 4000 prints easily.

Thus, it wouldn’t be wrong to say that the Epson EcoTank 3110 is the best multifunction printer for business use from the 9000 to 10000 Rupees range. Go for it!

► Canon G2012 Multi-Function Color Printer

Following the success of the Epson brand in the ink tank printer segment, this year Canon and HP have launched their ink tank printers at every price point almost. Undoubtedly Epson is the best brand for ink tank printers in the Indian market currently. However, Epson ink tank printers are most business-friendly as they lack smart features, which are must-be in office and home use printers.

If you need a fast ink tank multifunction printer, select one from Epson printers. The newest variants of Epson ink tank printers can print at 30 pages per minute whereas ink tank printers of Canon and HP struggle to hit even 10 pages per minute. That is why I say Epson printers are the best choice for business use.

Is Canon G2012 a perfect photo printer? The Canon G2012 model is an excellent multifunction printer. It is, in fact, one of the best printers under 10000 Rupees in the market currently. However, I would not recommend it for business use. I would not recommend it for photo card printing, either. If you are looking for a multifunction printer to use at a small photocopy center in a small town, then go for it. Ideally, Canon Pixma G2012 is a perfect printer for small office and home use.

If you need a dedicated ink tank photo printer, Epson L805 is the right option. At present, it is the only ink-tank photo printer in the Indian market. A dedicated ink-tank photo printer from the house of Canon is still awaited.

Should you buy this Canon printer? The Canon Pixma multifunction printer for 10000 Rupees is an over-priced model. It lacks smart features and a wireless connectivity option. Still, I recommend it because Canon maintains its lead in ensuring the best print quality even in the ink tank printer segment. I was thoroughly impressed with the quality of color printouts by this Canon printer.

Moreover, Canon provides two extra ink bottles in black color (each black ink bottle can print up to 7000 pages). Therefore, the Canon G2012 printer is the best deal at 10000 Rupees (not the best printer). Epson L361 is still the best printer in the 9000 to 10000 Rupees price range.

► HP 410 Multi-Function Wireless Printer

For a medium-sized office, a multifunction printer is a prerequisite for efficiency and productivity. Having a printer that can copy, scan, and print all at the same time is a huge step forward toward achieving your goals as a company.

However, when buying these kinds of devices, going for the cheapest multifunction laser printer on the market is not always advisable. This is simply because cheap always implies a lack of efficiency and durability. Nevertheless, you can always settle for a reasonably priced, high-quality multifunction printer, like the HP 410 Multi-function Ink Tank Printer.

We had a chance to review this device hands-on. Here are some of the praiseworthy features we found in this printer.

All in one functionality: The HP 410 is an all-in-one Printer meaning that it supports all three basic office operations, copying, scanning, and printing. This Ink Tank printer also supports both plain (black and white) and colored printing. Additionally, this device has a 24-bit flatbed scanner at the top. This scanner makes it the best all in one printer for home use in India at this price range. We actually liked the scanning quality of this device. Most of the time, multifunction centers (MFC) like this one tends to have compromised scanners. Nonetheless, this is not the case with the HP 410.

Standard printing speed: Notably, if you are looking for the best printer for the money, then the HP410 stands to be the best choice for you. This printer might not be exactly cheap, but its proficiency is matchless. To start with, the HP410 can print up to 8 Pages per minute for Black & White printing and up to about 5 pages per minute for colored printing. Although there are faster printers, the HP410 stands out because it economizes ink consumption. The average cost per page when using this device comes to 10 Paisa for Black & White and 18 Paisa for Colored printing. This is the recommended output as per ISO standards.

HP built this printer to work with a number of page sizes, which include A6, B5, A4, and DL envelopes. Also, this device supports manual Duplex Printing. It has a high colored print resolution of Up to about 4800 by 1200 optimized DPI. For Black and white printing, this HP inkjet all-in-one printer can print at 1200 by 1200 rendered DPI resolution. The First page out time is about 14 seconds for black and white prints and 18 seconds for colored prints.

Multiple connectivity options: Moreover, this printer has numerous Connectivity options. For instance, it supports printing over Wi-Fi through HP’s Smart app. In addition, you can always plug it into your laptop or computer through USB. Most HP inkjet printer models in this price range don’t have this feature. All the same, the manufacturer has enabled Wi-Fi connectivity in a number of them, including the HP 410.

Sturdy Build and long-hour operation: Finally yet importantly, this printer has a heavy-duty build and can print up to 1000 pages per month. This printing capacity makes it ideal both for home use and for heavy office usage. The manufacturer also included 7 LED indicators and one Icon LCD display to make things easier for the users.

► HP 6075 Multi-Function Printer

The HP DeskJet Plus Ink Advantage 6075 all-in-one printer is a sleek professional device ideal for both home-based and office printing jobs. Being a medium-priced printer, you expect that it features important features such as Wireless connectivity, Smart Phone compatibility, Color printing, and all-in-one functionality. Let’s have an in-depth look at the features of the HP Deskjet Advantage 6075 below.

Borderless + Color Printing: This printer supports colored printing with 4 colors and even an option to print borderless documents. This makes it ideal for printing photos in Studios and Branding items such as brochures and business cards.

For colored printing, it produces an average of 7 pages per minute. Additionally, its photo printing speed is 4 x 6 inches every 53 seconds.

Multi-functionality: Besides, the Deskjet 6075 printer is an all in one contraption, meaning it supports multiple office functions. It can print, scan, and even photocopy documents. One wonderful feature of this printer is that it can even color copy documents at a maximum resolution of 300×600 pixels. It can also do color scanning at a resolution of 1200×1200.

► Canon CP1300 Wireless Photo Printer

Is it a worthy purchase? Generally, Canon photo printers are very good at their job and are among the best small photo printers on the market. However, a lot of complaints have been made on one of their small printer lines, the Canon Selphy. If you do a good research online, you will see that Canon no longer supports a number of these early Selphy models.

So what has been happening is that users are ending up with a bunch of old defective printers. Some of them are in a good functioning state but have outdated drivers. Older Canon Selphy printers like the CP (1000) were very good in terms of printing quality. However, as Canon launched newer models, users claim that the driver and firmware updates ceased. So everyone is in a quandary, should you buy the latest Canon Selphy (CP1300)? Well here is our two cents on this product.

Great design: Canon built an award-winning design for Selphy CP 1300. Compared to its predecessors, this top photo printer has a classy design. It comes in three predominant colors, white, black, and pink. The LCD screen on this device measures 3.2 inches and has a tilt-up construct. Also, the dash is intuitive and well laid out.

High-Quality Photo Prints: If you read some of the reviews online about this product, you will realize that nobody is complaining about the printing quality. This is simply because the device prints vibrant HD photos without any anomaly. Additionally, the manufacturer fitted the printer with a special film print over-coating functionality. This feature allows the printer to coat all photos with an anti-color bleed glossy finish, which protects them from scarring in albums.

Wireless Connectivity: If you are looking for the best compact photo printer with wireless connectivity, then the Canon CP 1300 will be the right choice for you. The CP 1300 boasts high compatibility with most smart devices. To start with, this printer supports Wi-Fi Printing through AirPrint for iOS and Mopria for Android devices. However, some iPhone users have cited problems with AirPrint connectivity with this gadget. So if you are buying this printer for use with Apple devices, you have to understand that there might be some compatibility issues.

Enhanced Portability since it has a battery pack: Apart from being compact, this device happens to be a great professional portable photo printer. The manufacturer embedded a battery compartment on this device. Nonetheless, this feature is optional and the battery pack is sold separately. The CP 1300 works well with NB-CP2LH battery packs. When fully charged, each of these batteries can sustain the printer for over 50 postcard-size prints.
