Dell Laser Printer 1720dn (Monochrome)

This capable, well-equipped laser printer can handle both small-office and workgroup needs, and has room to grow.

Fast ; easy to use ; Automatic duplexer is standard

Slightly bendy input tray ; Some panel lights are hard to understand

The 1720dn Laser Printer offers a lot of features and flexibility for an accessible price. A small office with big ambitions won't have to leave this printer behind

Dell Laser Printer 1720dn

The Dell Laser Printer 1720dn earns lots of points for speed, paper handling, and text quality.

Fast. Network connector. Reasonably high-quality text. Good paper handling. Built-in duplexer.

Graphics show notable flaws, making them less than ideal for business use.
