• The top USB-C hubs for MacBook users are listed below.
• Take a look at these Thunderbolt cables that are braided.

1. PANTUM P2502W WIRELESS LASER PRINTER

It prints at a rate of 23 pages per minute (ppm), which is rather excellent for the price. However, it is prudent not to expect miracles from this printer. The print quality is adequate, however it is limited to a few hues of grey. Therefore, if you intend to distribute PowerPoint presentations or Excel spreadsheets, you may want to conduct a test run prior to printing the entire document.

Due to the fact that it is a laser printer, it is rather simple to maintain. The build quality, on the other hand, is a little fragile, and you'll want to treat this printer carefully. For the time being, connecting choices are limited to Wi-Fi and USB. Regrettably, there is no Apple AirPrint support.

2. BROTHER HLL2395DW COMPACT MONOCHROME LASER PRINTER

While it’s not one of the lightest printers (22 pounds), the compact shape lets you carry it without hassles. For the record, it measures around 10.7 x 16.1 x 15.7-inches, and you can safely tuck it into a corner of your office desk.

The connectivity possibilities are the main selling point of this tiny printer for Mac. You may use it wirelessly with Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi Direct, Google Cloud Print, and other options in addition to connecting it to your Mac through USB. It also supports AirPrint, which allows you to print directly from your Mac, iPad, or iPhone.

Thin lines emerge as expected, despite the fact that the prints are clear and precise. You'll be safe as long as you stay away from fine typefaces. The same can be said for prints with a lot of graphics. It works great with graphics. According to the experts at PC Mag, the results are suitable for professional use.

It also includes a 250-sheet tray and a 1-sheet feeder. However, it is devoid of ADF (Automatic Document Feeder). Furthermore, this Brother printer has issues with photographs.

3. EPSON EXPRESSION PREMIUM XP-6100 PHOTO PRINTER

Speaking of the size, this one is a little more compact than the one above and measures about 13.7 x 13.4 x 5.6- inches.

It includes a deluge of features, as previously said. There are two trays, for example. One of these trays is for photo prints, and the other is for normal prints. It's a flexible printer that performs admirably in both photo and ordinary print applications. The photos are clear and detailed, with a fair level of contrast.

The sort of black inks utilised distinguishes this Epson printer from the competition. This printer prints images with a specific type of black ink. And it's because of this ink that images have good contrast levels. It employs a consistent colour scheme of Cyan, Magenta, Black, and Yellow inks.

The printing speed is satisfactory. Epson rates it at 16 pages per minute (ppm) for monochrome printing and 11 pages per minute (ppm) for colour prints. The only disadvantage is that the operating costs are a little on the expensive side.

4. HP LASERJET PRO M404DW

The best thing about this printer is how quickly it prints. The firm boasts a print speed of 40 pages per minute, and the printer lives up to the hype. It can readily handle many types of documents, including plain text, PowerPoint slideshows, and PDFs. When printing graphic materials, the ppm naturally decreases.

Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi Direct, Apple AirPrint, HP ePrint, Google Cloud Print, and other networking options are available with the M404dw printer. Furthermore, the HP Smart App makes printing from phones and tablets a breeze. The AirPrint feature expedites the printing of documents from your Mac.

The one is a compact printer as well. It measures just about 8.5 x 15 x 14.1-inches.

5. HP OFFICEJET PRO 9025 ALL-IN-ONE WIRELESS PRINTER

The low cost per print is one of this printer's advantages over the one above. Simultaneously, the printing speed is quick. This printer has a monochrome print speed of 24ppm and a colour print speed of 20ppm, according to HP. This speed may appeal to you if your job requires you to distribute a lot of printed presentations and printouts.

Second, the scanner produces excellent results. Unfortunately, given the price, the printing quality is a little on the poor side. Even with increased quality, the prints can appear muddy at times. The same may be said with photographs.

However, if you want a printer for your Mac that can handle everything, you might want to investigate this one. Yes, it works with Apple AirPrint.

These were some of the Mac's little printers. While most of them easily connect to Macs and other Apple devices, AirPrint functionality makes it even easy. The Epson Expression Premium XP-6100 is a wonderful choice if you want the greatest bargain.
