  • "Not worth $400"

    Pros: Two sided printing, feed tray, 250 sheet paper tray.

    Cons: No envelope feeder. In order to print to envelopes you must open the paper tray, remove the paper, and adjust the alignment slides to print an envelope. No single sheet feeding for specialty paper.

    Summary: Not worth the $400. Too many engineering flaws.

    Touch screen accuracy is not all that great. Very easy to accidentally touch a wrong button. When I keyed in the 26 digit WPA code to get the printer on my network, I must have touched the OK button sending the printer to gain network access when I hadn't completed keying the access code. The result was that the printer wasn't allowed on the network and I had to re-key the entire 26 digit code all over. A little inconvenient considering that I have to flip back and forth between the alpha and the numeric keypads. Print quality is decent although the ink smears very easy. Scan quality is decent but slow. OK if you only have to scan a few pages. Scanning a 25 page doc can take some time.

    Bottom line: Look for another printer. You can get the same aggravation for less than 1/2 the price.
