Dell Photo All-In-One Printer 942

 

Dell adds media slots and a color LCD to its economical printer/scanner combo.

The Dell 942 is a good buy because of its low price, ease of use, and high scan quality, but you'll have to live with lackluster print quality.

Dell Photo All-In-One Printer 942

 

The Dell Photo All-In-One Printer 942 offers better speed than most ink jet AIOs, but with output quality that's a touch below par, particularly for photos.

Direct printing from cameras and memory cards. Relatively fast performance across the board. Includes a utility to scan and fax using your PC's modem.

No automatic document feeder. No built-in fax modem. Output quality is a bit below par for an ink jet.

Dell Photo All-In-One Printer 942

 

The Dell Photo All-In-One Printer 942 has the same small footprint as the cheaper Dell 922 model. But it also has an attractive 2.5" colour LCD for vi...

Cheap, efficient button setup, great colour scanning

Low print quality, lacks high-level flash memory support

The Dell 942 is a good buy because it's cheap, easy to use and produces high-quality scans, but its print quality is lacklustre.

Dell 942 Photo All-in-One

 

The Dell 942 is an easy-to-use photo multifunction, despite the hassles of swapping ink and software-only faxing.

Prints photos without a PC ; Easy to use ; Good text and colour print quality ; Photo software included

Photo ink not included ; Lacks a built-in fax ; No Mac support ; Forces you to trade inks when you switch between photo and text printing
