"Nice printer for the price"
Pros: Good print quality, nice looks, east set up
Cons: IT'S BIG - need lots of desk room, no output tray
Summary: I purchased this printer to go with my new Vista PC and I like it a lot. It was a breeze to set up (even in Vista) and text looks really sharp on the prints. It is also very fast - black and white prints take less than a second and color is speedy too. Print quality looks realy good to me - I owuld not rely on it for photos but for normal printing needs it is more than ready.
Ink looks to be pretty affordable and is easy to install. You also get some bundled scrapbook and photo software - but I left it off my system.
The printer is large and needs a lot of desk space. It also has it own power button - which may be a good thing to some people - but I prefer a printer that is one when the PC is on and off when the PC is off. The lack of an output tray is not a big deal for me since I would not have the desk space for the printer if it were any larger.
Overall, I think under $50 is a good deal on a nice looking and nice featured printer. Set up is easy and prints look good - what more could you want for the money?
NOTE: Mine is the "special edition" one from Wal-Mart. I can find no difference in the product but there may be some minor changes from the model I use and the one reviewed by CNet.
