Canon LaserShot LBP-5000 review

Verdict:

The LBP-5000fs slow mono printing means it isn't ideal for long text documents: the AcuLaser C1100 was three times faster on our Draft speed test. However, its low price and reasonable running costs make it a good choice if you want a cheap and rapid colour printer.
