Need a printer? Amazon's October Prime Day prices are worth a look.
Shop the best Prime Big Deal Days printer deals now:
It’s that time of year again — Amazon’s gearing up for Prime Day ~fall edition~ (aka Prime Big Deal Days), which means there will be deals on hundreds of items leading up to the big event on Oct. 8 and 9.
Prime Day is a great opportunity to snag some products that you may not feel the urge to buy at full price, but that you should probably have — a printer, for example. Remember the internal chaos you felt the last time you needed to sign an online document by hand or print a return label for an impulsive clothing haul? Now is your time.
Here are the best early Prime Day printer and scanner deals we could find this week:
Best printer deal overall
Why we like it
When it comes to casual home or dorm room use, most of us want the same, simple thing in a printer: one that's easy to set up, easy to use, and not $200. The HP Envy 6455e is a classic choice, and its massive 40% discount at Amazon brings it below $90. It's a wireless color inkjet printer that can also can, copy, and fax. To save you even more money, this version of the Envy also comes with three months’ worth of ink through HP+. You just have to activate your subscription to get it; it's pretty easy to do through the app.
Best printer deal for business
Why we like it
The HP OfficeJet Pro 8135e is a more serious printer. This all-in-one model can print, scan, copy, and fax. It also has auto two-sided printing to help save paper.
With an auto document feeder, 225-sheet input tray, and a printing speed of up to 10 color pages per minute, it can handle everything from making fliers to printing client documents. The touchscreen display makes it easy to use, and the HP Wolf Essential Security helps protect sensitive info. You’ll get three months’ worth of ink with this one, too, through HP+.
Best budget printer deal
Why we like it
The Canon PIXMA TS6420a is a seemingly basic printer, but it’s still an all-in-one model that works with Alexa. You can copy, print up to six pages per minute, and scan with this one, including the ability to print wirelessly from your phone or tablet — a nice feature to get for under $60.
If you want to save a little more, the Canon PIXMA MG3620 is only $49 and comes in black, red, or white. It's an all-in-one color inkjet printer with mobile and tablet printing capabilities.
