Ranked #3 in Best All-in-One Printers Under $300
HP Envy 6555e3.7
2 sources$179.99as of Oct 11The Envy 6555e is the compact, budget pick for light home use, the smallest printer here. TechRadar and RTINGS note crisp black text and quiet, easy operation, though it is frustratingly slow on large documents. It adds auto duplex and a 35-sheet ADF in a small body. The compromises are slow speed, a two-cartridge system that raises color costs, no fax, and HP's Instant Ink push.
