Best Desktop Copiers

HOW TO CHOOSE = Experts generally recommend digital to be the best desktop copiers rather than analog. Digital copiers cost less per copy and get better quality copies. However, analog copiers are cheaper and are fine if you make infrequent copies.

Generally speaking, there have been many more recent developments in multifunction printers than in copiers. These machines can make copies, print, scan and fax. Desktop copiers do not have to be directly connected to a computer, while the multifunction machines do.

If you prefer the copier because you don’t have much use for the other functions, look for automatic duplexing. This will allow you to copy both sides of a page without having to manually flip it over.

THE REVIEW = The Sharp AL-1631 is the Best Home Office Copier. Reviews indicate that this model produces good-looking monochrome copies quickly. It comes with a 30-page document feeder, has a speed of 22 pages per minute, and can copy up to legal size paper.

It offers a zoom range from 25% to 400%. This copier doesn’t take up too much space, with a footprint of 21” by 19”. Look for prices around $350.

Other top performers include:

Best Personal Desktop Copier = Canon PC150 @ about $75.

Full-featured Copier = Xerox Copy Centre C20 @ $1195.

Best price found in Nov., ’09 and again in Apr., '10 = All 3 were best at Amazon.com.

Amazon.com also offered Pre-Owned Units at about $60. Use the search bar at the top of the page - type in the model you want - the appropriate page will appear.
