Printer Information and Recommendations Recently the Division Of Life Sciences Helpdesk reviewed various printer manufacturers and organized a new policy on printer recommendations. After reviewing the information, we have found Xerox to be the best choice for our laser printers.  They have won awards and reviews for their B/W and Color Laser printers. We have also decided to stand by HP for  their Ink Jet line of printers only. For questions concerning these printers and which would be best for your particular needs, or for a quote to order a new printer please contact helpdesk@biology.rutgers.edu.   For information about Xerox or its printers please see http://www.xerox.com.
