#Dell 725 printer reviews windows
Speed, Output Quality, and Other Issues For my tests, I used the V725w's Ethernet port to connect to a wired network, and I ran the tests from a system running Windows Vista. So is the 50-page automatic document feeder (ADF), which supplements the letter-size flatbed to let you scan legal-size pages as well as multi-page documents.Īs with the V525w, the only photocentric feature in the V725w is the ability to print directly from PictBridge cameras, and even the PictBridge connector doubles for office use, giving you the convenience of letting you scan to or print from a USB memory key. The fax support, as well as the duplexer, is of particular interest for office use. The V725w can print and fax from, as well as scan to, a PC, even over a network, and it can work as a standalone copier and fax machine. And although the V725w is a bit larger than the V525w, at 9.9 by 18.3 by 15.9 inches (HWD), it's still small enough to share a desk with comfortably, making it a good choice as a personal printer.īasics One other important similarity is that both printers are better suited for the office than for home use, thanks to relatively low photo quality in both cases, an emphasis on office-centric features, and an absence of photocentric features, like being able to print from a memory card, or other features aimed at home users. The similarity also extends to a long list of features, including, for example, WiFi support and built-in duplexers for printing on both sides of the page. But even a 150-sheet input is on the meager side for a shared printer.
Between the two, the V725w is the better choice for sharing, because of the higher paper capacity. Most important, both are limited to light-duty use, which makes them more appropriate as personal printers than shared printers. That said, the two are similar in most other ways.
