In this section we introduce the dozen printers we chose to cover, along with a handy features matrix to help you compare and contrast these units over a wide range of features. We begin with a list of the printers themselves, followed by the features matrix. Next you'll find a brief section devoted to each of the twelve printers we cover that describes its capabilities in more detail, and discusses its purchase and consumables costs, along with a product photo and links to additional information. In our conclusion, we mention several of the most compelling offerings, and award one or more units an Editor's Choice based on especially outstanding price/performance characteristics. Note that the two MFC models in the list are designated as All-In-One printers in their product names.

I was kind of disappointed to see this article completely ignores that these printers employ different Colour Laser printing technologies. In terms of the cost of ownership and cost of print per page different technologies make a huge difference.
This information can be found anywhere and this article is only good as a list of products that are available in the market and nothing more.
