The Bottom Line: One of the best printers I have used. I love the photo quality using photo paper. Scanner works great.
I was afraid that by only paying $150 bucks for this unit that the photo printing would be poor, even after researching it and finding other people had great luck with it. WOW! I am impressed. The color saturation is excellent and the color management software is really helpful. There are so many tweeks that one can do it's amazing.
It was a little confusion to figure out the paper feeding system, but once I figured it out it's fine. I don't like that it is so big, so it can't really be "tucked away". I use it at home mostly for photos and scanning.
The scanner seems to be great, but I am no expert on scanners.
The ink has lasted quite awhile, longer than my old unit.
Overall we really like the unit. Have not used the fax function yet, we need a line run.
