very poor experience

Pros: inexpensive for a multifunction printer,easy to set up

Cons: ink cartridges expensive, poor copy quality, Printer had to be replaced shortly after the limited warrantee expired.

Review: did not like much about this printer. Function buttons were confusing, paper continued to jam in the printer, and it quit working all together a little over a year.

Fine at first, BUT...

Pros: Easy setup, good quality prints, low initial cost

Cons: Guzzles expensive ink, won't retain settings, paper jams

Review: Lexmark practically gives you printers, I guess to hook you on their expensive ink, but they are VERY expensive to operate and dinkily constructed. Now this one jams paper, with less than 100 pages through it. This is not my first bad experience with Lexmark (slow learner), but it will be my last. Back to (sigh) HP.

Great Multi-function unit with small footprint

Pros: Card reader, backlit lcd display, single ink cartridge

Cons: photo print quality is average

Review: I bought this unit from the Source (by Circuit City). The price, with tax was $92 But, there is a mail-in rebate for $80, so the final price for this great little unit is under $12
The print speed is very good and prints with little noise. I am impressed with the price that I paid and for the quality of the product.

Works for me

Pros: only one ink cartridge to buy and you can find it for $20.00 maybe cheaper for a non OEM. Price for a 3 in one printer is GREAT

Cons: kinda flimsy, don'drop it

Review: For the price and only having one ink cartridge to replace instead of 3 or 4 as some other printers require....I'm going to give it a try for awhile longer.

IT'S ALIVE !!!!!!

Pros: small footprint, all in one, price

Cons: composite ink

Review: I bought this to replace a lexmark z65p that up a died one day. The price was right and staples was offering a free two year extended warranty as well as a $25 rebate. The only qualms I have is that it uses composite black instead of having a dedicated black cartridge. For whatever reason I can tell the difference and it bugs me a bit.

Otherwise a solid purchase.
