Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I purchased this printer based on the review of a fellow Amazon user, who mentioned its great compatibility with Snow Leopard, as well as its very affordable price for everything it offers.
A loyal HP printer user for many years, I decided to save a couple hundred bucks and try my luck with this machine. I was sold on its many features and low price.
I was so pleased with how simple this printer was to set up. From box to print was about 8 minutes, most of that time spent removing tape from the unit and loading the toner cartridges. Network setup was instant: I connected an ethernet cable to my router (which is connected to my cable modem) and POOF -- just by printing something from Word, my Snow Leopard downloaded and installed the appropriate software, and it printed a gorgeous document. I never even needed to insert the CD (but I think I will when I try to use the PC to print to it via the network).
I wanted just one printer that all of the family members' computers could print to; this printer has successfully replaced both our black-and-white laser and our inkjet printers.
Pros:
wireless network printing
full color laser printing
600 x 2400 DPI (others have higher but I don't need higher resolution; in fact my eye can't tell the difference!)
flatbed scanning
flatbed copying
compatibility with both Macs and PCs
easy setup (at least on a Mac)
fast printing (17 pages/minute)
Cons:
no fax capabilities
no duplex printing
relatively small flatbed
maximum width for paper feed 8.5"
doesn't come with cables (make sure you have an extra USB and/or ethernet cable)
comes with "starter" toner, and replacements are about $70/each (and there are four)
If you're looking for a do-it-all, good-quality full color printer, don't need a fax, don't print large documents, and don't need to do much double-sided printing, you can't go wrong with this printer!
