5. Kodak Hero 5.1

  • Rating: Rated 9 out of 10

The Kodak Hero 5.1 isn’t the slickest or most stylish printer we’ve seen. And its speed is slightly uninspiring in places. But it proved reliable in our tests, comes with a multitude of connectivity options, and its running costs are remarkable. It gets a thumbs-up from us.

4. Epson Stylus SX525WD

  • RRP: £75 inc. VAT
  • Rating: Rated 8 out of 10

As the name suggests, the SX525WD is the next step up from the SX425W, and it provides essentially the same set of features – the only major difference being the addition of double-sided printing.

3. Canon Pixma MG5350

  • Rating: Rated 8 out of 10

Since the introduction of the range in 2004, Canon’s Pixma printers have regularly delivered an intoxicating mix of good print quality, strong features and stylish design. The MG5350, then, is treading a distinguished path. But then, this is no bargain basement page churner.

2. HP Photosmart Premium e-All-In-One

  • RRP: RRP £143 inc VAT
  • Rating: Rated 9 out of 10

Apart from the unhelpful manual it’s hard to find fault with HP’s Photosmart Premium e-All-In-One. It’s fast, versatile and produces very good quality text, graphics and photo prints. And, of course, its support for AirPrint makes it an excellent choice for anyone who wants to print photos or other documents from their iPhone or iPad.

1. Kodak Hero 7.1

An all-in-one that’s aimed at photographers, the Kodak Hero 7.1 is a credible and well-rounded package.
