Thread: Printers Performance

No Flaws in Everyday Printing: Laser printers, or for that matter inkjets too, have
become sufficiently advanced to an extent that pretty much all of them offer good print quality when it comes to documents (black text printing). In our text prints we looked for two parameters - absence of jaggy edges (edges showing hints of zig-zag under close scrutiny) and lack of graininess in print.



The two 'Brothers', the HL-2140 and the HL-2150N produced the best prints with no jaggy edges and curves looking smooth, even under a magnifying glass. The dark prints contrasted well against the white paper. Text as small as point size 2 was easily readable when viewed under the magnifying glass (note that text of this size cannot be read by the naked eye). The HPs, Canons and the Samsung produced good prints too, just a notch lower than the Brothers. The only printer that failed to produce easily readable print at this size was the Xerox Phaser 3117.
