The Whole Enchilada Multifunction machines provide all-in-one capabilities.

All of me (sing it with us!), why not take all of me? Yes, wehave a reason to sing: You can have your copier and printdocuments, too. Assuming your cluttered desk would buckle under theweight of a separate copier, fax machine and scanner, amultifunction machine might be just what you need.

Any of the six all-in-ones we look at here could handle theneeds of you and a few employees. If your business is growing likea weed, however, you might want dedicated machines for high-volumeduties. Otherwise, all-in-ones use less space and cost less thanseparate pieces. Before you start, know what you're lookingfor: a laser all-in-one or a flatbed all-in-one.

The two lasers we included are the Canon L6000 and the BrotherMFC-4350. You'll get the cheaper upkeep costs and crispness ofa laser printer, but you won't get the lovely color output ofan inkjet like the Epson Stylus Scan 2000. The rarer flatbedscanner multifunctions like the Hewlett-Packard are preferable ifyou plan to scan anything that won't fit through a sheet-fedscanner, such as books, business cards or your face. Sheet-feds arehandy because they automatically handle more than one sheet at atime for faxing and copying.
