Compare Resolutions

Document quality is important. Compare the print, copy and scan resolutions on each MFP you are considering. The standard print resolution used to be 600 dpi, but now we are seeing a shift to 1,200 dpi. Some devices do a better job with screens and photos than others. Make sure to copy and print some of your originals to check the quality of the output. Also, consider an MFP that offers both black-and-white and color scanning.
