Excellent photo print quality, good text and speedy output

The product is excellent in almost every respect.

It suffers from a bit of 'clunkiness' when loading and discharging paper.

Robust easy to set up quick and quiet

Print speed slower than spec (but who believes those figures anyway?)

Simple and effective.

Little heavy on black toner.

ink runns with any little drop of water
