Dell Photo All-in-One Printer 964

review

By M. David Stone

Dads & GradsIf you have a home office and you need an all-in-one (AIO) printer, you want something that can copy, scan, and fax, as well as include an automatic document feeder (ADF) for multipage documents. If you're looking for a printer to print photos at home, you probably want one with high-quality photo output, the ability to print directly from PictBridge cameras and memory cards, and an LCD screen for previewing photos. It's easy to find a printer that fits one description or the other. Luckily, the Dell Photo All-in-One Printer 964 ($199 direct) fits both, making it a good choice to serve double duty as a home photo and home-office printer.

Bottom Line

The Dell Photo All-In-One Printer 964 is slow for a printer at this price point, but it offers all the features you need in a home or home office all-in-one.

Pros

50-page automatic document feeder. PictBridge connector and memory card slots for direct printing. 2.5-inch color LCD for previewing photos.

Cons

Text quality is below par for an ink jet printer. Performance on both business applications and photos is slow for the price.
