A Good Multi-Function for the Price
Date of Review: Dec 6, 2007
The Bottom Line: I'd buy it again.
I don't expect this printer to have a long life-span, but for the price it is a smart purchase. I bought this printer because of it's extensive features and it's a great choice for a home user or home office user.
It scans well, copies well, faxes fine and the print quality is good enough for most uses. I like the separate ink cartridges seem we never seem to use them at an equal pace. The cartridges are not too expensive and are readily available. The paper tray will hold a nice amount of paper so at least you're aren't always refiling it. The ability to put your memory cards right into the machine is great too.
However, as I mentioned, I don't expect this machine to last. It has a flimsy feel to it. Every time I change the ink I think I'd going to break the arm that holds the top open. You also get the same feeling when you pull the paper tray out. Now, I haven't actually broken it yet, and I've had this for almost two years, so maybe it just feels flimsy. Lastly, the print heads seem to constantly get clogged. This started about 5 months ago. So far running the machine cleaning cycle, fixes the problem, but I just waiting for the day it doesn't.
