Printers are essential in almost all official settings, even compact business spaces and home offices.

Gone are the days when a room was dedicated to printing purposes, as print services in many businesses must now share the same space as employees.

In many cases, people just want their printers to occupy a small part of their desk - so whether you're looking for a home printer or a small business printer, size is becoming more relevant than ever.

Factors to consider when choosing a small printer

  • Space Constraints: Measure the area where you intend to place the printer to ensure a good fit.
  • Portability: If mobility is a priority, opt for lightweight models with battery options.
  • Functionality: Decide whether you need additional features like scanning, copying, or color printing.
  • Maintenance Costs: Evaluate cartridge prices and power consumption to determine long-term affordability.
  • Connectivity: Look for wireless and app-based printing options for added convenience.
