"Spend a couple bucks more for something better!" on January 12, 2005

Pros: Inexpensive for the number of features. Backed by Dell support.

Cons: Very cheap construction. Within the first couple weeks, the scanner broke and the unit had to be replaced. Also, ink can only be bought through Dell. Although it's the same printer as the Lexmark X5150, you can't use the same ink cartridges becuase of

"Mixed feelings" on April 13, 2006 by bluescreen11

Pros: Great!--when it's working

Cons: Terrible--when it's not working

Summary: The first obstacle to overcome--we kept getting defective A940's and had to replace them through warranty. This is the third or fourth one, and it's just reached the one-year mark. Gotta get a new printer--no more Dell for me.

"cartridge buying nightmare!" on January 8, 2006 by tinkergeek

Pros: decent features for the price

Cons: can't stop printing once it's started, cartrides are costly and ordering is a nightmare.

Summary: no, dell, i did not misunderstand...i was told i had to spend $129 and purchase 4 cartridges, after stating twice that i wanted one black, and one color cartridge. i got it down to 3 cartridges but no lower. i was to spend $104 total. that's very near the price of the printer! i was told i was out of ink though the indicator said i was "getting" low, and it showed 1/3 left. no reply to my questions or feedback. bah. i learned my lesson from dell. i think i will ignore them now...
