That's not a deal-breaker, of course - it's not like a printer has to be sexy. Second: This may be the ugliest printer I've ever seen. Dell's own product page doesn't mention the feature, and a third-party review calls out the omission. Two things you should know right away: Although Staples' product page still says otherwise, this printer does not offer duplexing. Why is this likely to sell out? The E525w lists for $329.99 and sells elsewhere for at least $200. So I apologize if it's gone by the time you get there.

Note that shipping is expected to take 7-10 business days.Īs of this writing, the printer was still in stock - but Staples has an unfortunate history of rapid sellouts.

Like this one: For a limited time, and while supplies last, Staples has the Dell E525w color laser all-in-one printer for $129.99 shipped (plus tax). Better print quality (especially on plain paper), lower cost of consumables and none of the aggravation of throwing away an expensive ink cartridge that's clogged or dried up because you didn't print for a month.Īnd if you're going to spring for a color laser, you might as well get one that's also a scanner, copier and fax machine - in other words, an all-in-one (aka multifunction, or MFP). See, when it comes to printers, laser beats inkjet in much the same way rock beats scissors. Because, to my thinking, it's the single best printer deal you can get. I've actually been tracking this model like crazy, waiting for it to finally go on sale again. This is another rerun, and actually with a slightly higher price than last time (just $10) - but also way lower than usual. It ain't pretty, but it's inexpensive and very, very capable.
