Consumer Reports is a nonprofit member organization dedicated to working for a fairer, safer marketplace. These models, like every printer we test, have been put through the wringer in our dedicated labs, evaluated and scored by our testers on almost 250 data points. And speaking of that, remember that one way manufacturers make a printer smaller is by shrinking the capacity of those feed trays, sometimes to under 50 sheets or less. Note that the measurements listed for each printer below are taken when the model is ready for operation, with paper trays in place, so the footprint may be even smaller when the device isn’t in use. We also tweaked the scoring for print speed, given that today’s printers are faster than ever. Our ratings have also changed recently, placing much more emphasis on the ability to print quality text than on graphics or photos, which reflects survey data about how people actually use their printers. We’ve picked out five of the best small printers in our ratings, including one portable model and two laser printers-notable because that tech tends to be more reliable but typically more bulky than inkjets.īecause our ratings don’t take size into account, a few of these models don’t achieve CR Recommended status, but they’re still capable of solid performance.
