BLI Line of the Year - The criteria to determine the annual "Line
of the Year" include reliability, connectivity, output quality, control panel

utilities and feedback to user workstations. The award is given to full ranges of
copier-, fax-, or printer-based devices that achieve the highest standards in overall
excellence.
BLI Pick of the Year - Twice yearly, in June and
December, BLI's experienced editorial and test technician teams review all of the
equipment they've evaluated during the previous six months and present the prestigious
"Pick of the Year" award to the devices that they determine are the "best
of the best".
BERTL's Best
The "BERTL's Best" (Business Equipment Research Test Laboratories) award
recognises individual devices, products, and product lines that stand apart. Winners
are selected after comprehensive analysis of digital imaging devices and products
from around the world.
BERTL Readers' Choice
The winner of the coveted "Readers' Choice" award is chosen by the end
users themselves--resellers, IT managers, technicians, managers, etc. Thousands
are surveyed and asked to weigh in on equipment, services and sales issues. The
awards recognise the manufacturers, rather than individual products.
Better Buys
Better Buys for Business is a wholly independent organisation that evaluates office
equipment. It publishes ten buyer's guides per year, which cover a wide range of
products, to help buyers make informed purchasing decisions.
