Great print quality makes the 1250c suited to personal use, but its print costs are quite high.

Dell 1250c review

 

The Dell 1250c colour printer uses LED technology instead of the more-common laser to create equally crisp results. Priced from just £175 inc VAT, it makes colour output seem attainable even for a home office. Unfortunately, Dell's exorbitant toner...

?The Dell 1250c colour LED printer puts quality colour printing within range of lower-budget users. Unless you plan not to print much, however, your budget will quickly be busted by this model's high toner costs.

Dell - 1250c

 

For years virtually all page printers have been based on laser engines, with only one main manufacturer using a printer based on an LED mechanism. In the last year, though, two more suppliers have launched LED ...

If you want colour business print, but don't have a lot of room for a printer, this machine could suit you. While it's comparatively slow and its colour toner is expensive, it produces good quality print and is quiet for this type of machine. A mixed...

Dell 1250c colour LED printer

 

The Dell 1250c is a colour LED printer with a low initial price of $319. It is compact compared to many colour laser printers, but it prints slowly an...

Good print quality for both colour and mono documents, low initial price

High ongoing toner costs, slow prints

The Dell 1250c has good print quality and a low initial price, but its toner is expensive and it prints slowly.

Dell 1250c Color LED Laser-Class Printer review: Dell 1250c Color LED Laser-Class Printer

 

Dell 1250c Color LED Laser-Class Printer

The ; is easy to set up and delivers high-resolution documents in black as well as color.

The printer can only connect to one computer at a time through a USB port in the pack, lacking Ethernet and Wi-Fi networking.

The Dell 1250c color laser printer's compact frame makes sense for users in a confined space, but its lack of Ethernet and wireless connectivity limits its appeal for networked offices.

Dell 1250c

 

The Dell 1250c Color LED Printer prints high-quality output at fast speed.

Fast. Reasonably high-quality output across the board. Above-par photo quality.

USB connection only. Low paper capacity, at 150-sheets.

Affordable purchase price ; Nice color quality

Severely overpriced toner ; Control-panel lights are difficult to interpret

This color LED printer's low purchase price is tempting, but its extremely high toner costs are off-putting.

Dell 1250c Color LED Printer

 

Like the 1350cnw, the 1250c is an LED printer, which means it's similar to a laser, but uses LEDs instead of a laser to draw the image of each page when it prints. One advantage of LEDs is that they help keep the printer size down. In the case of the...

Fast. Reasonably high-quality output across the board. Above-par photo quality

USB connection only. Low paper capacity, at 150-sheets

The Dell 1250c Color LED Printer delivers faster speed and better output quality overall than anything else in its price class, but at a somewhat higher cost per page.
