A simple inkjet printer but very imposing occupying an identical surface as a laser printer. The noise and the slow add up to power, it seems that this din and interminable wait are necessary before the device is available. Even turning off demand significant time before extinguishing the light. You should not turn off the power until the lamp is turned off, because it is feared that this time does not respected adds to the already long waiting upon ignition of the printer. If you ignore this advice, a message about it makes you notice that you have not read the instruction manual. "Especially not going to complain that this printer is slow," the builder did not dare add to this message. The ink cartridges are opaque, we can no longer get an idea of their capacity, the clear plastic that showed the ink is gone. One way to counteract the trick is to inject this liquid out prices contained in these cartridges. The two superimposed cassettes are very convenient, one is dedicated to small 10x15 formats, 127x177mm, the other A4, it avoids having additional manipulations in advance of photo paper ready for printing that can be left in the machine. We finally accept these flaws and quirks that are compensated by the undeniable quality print of this printer. Respect for the originality of colors, eg light gray, which does not turn dark gray (right amount of ink), a finding by observing two identical photos, one of the pictures printed on a Canon Prixma IP 3600 (the old printer) with ink very sure of origin, and proper alignment of the print head on each machine. Satisfied with this purchase primarily for print quality, but for the rest we wonder if it is not going backwards. I add after several months of use; this printer enables printing in black when one or all of the color cartridges are low or considered as such, why just follow the instructions that appear.
