bought this printer 2 years ago while i was in college.
- within first month of owning it a plastic object broke off (the auto detecttion for open cover). so for 2 year ive had an old pair of scissors propped into the place where the plastic broke off just to get the machine to work.
- the plastic paper holder broke off rather easily, so ive had to place a piece of cardboard under the printer to hold the paper to feed.
- exp. freq. printer jams + bad prints. off set type
- ink cartridge spilled a ton of ink. just realized that as i removed a gum-sized hardened ink from the bottom of the printer. so it must have been wasting ink the whole time as well.
works fine for basic printing needs (words only), image quality for photos or images is pretty basic. but really, this printer is poorly made.
looks nice but its a dud.
