After, this printer specifically, it must be emphasized that it is not compatible with Windows XP (network or USB, whatever).
Vista, 7 and 8, no worries ... tested!
To continue, please note that supplied cartridges are filled to 33% (like any new laser printer you buy, there are NO exceptions to this and it is the case for over 15 years that it's like that).
So you can count actually (tested!) On 500 pages for the black cartridge.
Regarding the system Turnstile (cartridges are mobile), the system is fun but obviously Colour Slow ... by cons, very fast black -1 page every 4 seconds-after starting 15 seconds.
And I seldom prints in color (I'm not crazy and it is useless).
The charger of white sheets on the bottom is very effective, even if it looks like the old charger of deskjet, it has nothing to do ... we can more rapidly change the paper, to envelopes or checks ...! (Awful)
In fact, in the end, this printer is perfect for people who would print 500 pages 2-3 months (a ream).
Note that for odd pages, the document feeder is lifted ... so we can correctly see the output of paper from the roll and therefore take the odd paper that was inserted to help him out of the printer ( For checks, for example).

Concerning the program and the set-ups of the printer, do not expect much ... this series has been specially purified: no setting proceed in the draft to share print quality, normal and photograph (color or black).
The system of the scanner, by cons, is quite malleable and allows much carbon scanner Sheetfed (so gray writing) with a cut-out area already before scanning (for special documents that scans regularly, is very significant ).
I do not use the printer on the RJ45 Ethernet (no WiFi and no USB).

I removed one star because of the price of the cartridges (ah well, be careful, huh ... otherwise it is paid cash).
But it is relative, this printer is very compact on a desk ... hence the price of cartridges "reduced" capacity for this.
