Good for run-of-the-mill stuff
|
For passing 8.5x11 sheets in an office environment, this printer is fine.
It plugs in, defaults to using DHCP to say hi to the computers on your network. You can also config it to static IP. Supports a lot of nice admin stuff and FTP. Check manual before buying. I've been most impressed by the software end of this thing. Very thorough from my POV.
The mixed-tone color is pretty dotty. Would not recommend this if you were using it for release material (like CD art, pamphlets, etc) Solid colors are good and kind of glossy and the picture quality does not degrade to the point of being unreadable or anything like that. (usually - tiny text can sometimes grain up)
Works pretty well with good old fashioned 8.5x11. Paper jams occur but are rare enough.
It's not recommended, but I have been successful printing CD art (j-cards and booklets) with it. Sometimes it experiences a paper jam at A1 but nothing TOO messy*. On some days it jams up a lot with CD art, other days it will do 500 units without a hitch. Weather?
*cardboard stuck in the heating roller was a nightmare though.
It is not LOUD, but it is noisy. Sounds like a microwave making popcorn. Stuff it in the closet and save your sanity.
The toner lasts a long time if you are a causal home user of the printer. If you normally purchase new toner you'll want to get extra toner soon as these are not 100% full cartridges.
Important unpacking advice: If it arrives cold from the weather, take it out of the packaging and just let it sit for a day to warm up - do NOT plug it in. There is mechanical stuff which will squeal, snag, and scrape on the inside if cold and can damage some very expensive parts.
Also be careful when removing the securing tape, particularly from the inside-some of it gets secured in a manner which will rip off components if you're not cautious in peeling the tape. Peel, don't pull. |
