- Canon ImageClass MF4270
- The Canon ImageClass MF4270 is a basic and inexpensive mono multifunction machine intended for individuals or small offices.

- HP Photosmart D5360
- The HP Photosmart D5360 wants to be a compelling option for an inexpensive single-function photo printer. But it provides few of the photo options that would make it so. Standalone-mode options boil down to printing photos directly from a memory card; any edits have to be made using your PC....

- HP Photosmart C5280 Multifunction Printer
- The HP Photosmart C5280 is a bargain of an inkjet multifunction at $150. Its task speeds aren't stellar, but they are acceptable for the average home user. It's better suited for graphics and photo printing than for text printing, though, so look elsewhere if you need a lot of high-quality...

- Lexmark Z845
- If you're a fan of uncomplicated technology, you're sure to appreciate the single-function Lexmark Z845. This $50 printer does nothing more than print. Whether printing text, graphics, or photos, the print speeds and the quality are about what you'd expect from such a low-cost unit: good but not great. Also,...

- Samsung SCX-4200
- The Samsung SCX-4200 is a surprisingly inexpensive monochrome multifunction laser printer. For a mere $180, you can print, scan, and copy; the only feature it lacks is fax functionality, though you can work around this omission by going the scan-and-e-mail route. In fact, its cost is so low that we...

- Samsung ML-2571N
- In a world of multifunction color printers that do everything short of cooking dinner, monochrome laser printers are often overlooked.

- YouTube: No special DMCA policies for candidates
- McCain wants YouTube to give special handling to DMCA takedown notices regarding political campaigns. Today, YouTube gave the campaign the cold shoulder. It seems McCain has run afoul of copyright holders more than once, with the use of news clips from CBS and Fox. McCain is probably right that their...
