Epson AcuLaser C1700 color laser printer (USB 2.0) (Personal Computers)

Customer Review

The previous good reviews I can confirm - a faster, quieter and pressure-wise very good printer for very little money. Nevertheless, there are important criteria for me to add that not mentioned above so that you can know and sometimes even before the purchase even if you a closer look at photos:

Positives:
* There are a genuine software and an Eco mode available, though at least hiding something when MacOSX driver.
* A real on-off switch is available (unlit).
* The fan is relatively quiet, a bit like a quieter PC and switched on in standby completely.
* Operation and printing results odorless.
* Very fast resume from standby.
* Housing and connections work very solid, as is the whole device. Compared to the cheap Samsung printers as different as day and night.
* The printer is relatively light and has almost ideal IKEA shelf dimensions.
* Serrated finger grips for safe lifting and carrying there's also.
* Apparently very simple toner changes and obviously accepted EPSON, that uses alternative toner by only "recommended" to buy originals.
* Foolproof paper feed with automatic centering and dust.
* The housing provides in white and gray tones of noble, can give it as a photo.
* Very resource-conserving driving under MacOSX and simple Dashboard widget. Here HP says hello with several 100 MB (Windows 7)!
* Practical non-nonsense packaging.

Negatives:
* After unpacking is not warned before the first connection to the computer before, already load paper. That had me under Mac OSX 10.7. right the first time you turn a paper jam the consequence of lies but easily removed by the paper feeder. Then everything went.
* The driver for MacOSX does not allow you to print a test page.
* The flap under the paper feed depends a bit in the air when the printer is on a shelf and has no backing in front of the paper feed.
* The time to standby can not be selected and is estimated 10min long, where at least 60W energy are drawn. After then 5W, which I find ok.
* The button in the middle of the operation indicator has no tactile feedback and is very shaky and cheap. But that almost all printers that are not of HP and I fell into the hands. Almost as agreed ...
* The connections for USB and power on the back are left _und_ right. Although this is only bad if you want to lay the cables together, but it is not clear to me why you do something.
* The MacOSX driver is confusing and requires a lot of clicks and a good memory, until you repeat to all and partly also important options is ran.
* Legal large minimum print margins: around 6 x mm, down almost 15mm!
* Why only the unpacking customer must engage the output bin on top itself and that is not done at the factory, is beyond me. A step is indeed thereby saved during installation, but the customer is slightly annoying when unpacking and fears cancel noses (no warranty). So what I do not understand.
* The information sheet in the paper tray is adhered with tape; you have the fairly strong rip out and specially still remove the tape later. Ginge elegant ...
* The installation instructions for the driver could have been much briefer, the too-small screenshots omit and the whole thing can make clearer / need. Got that I have the instruction manual completely (I, however, also have a university degree;)).
* The printer requires around on all 4 sides square to him: Links Fan, rear connections and "Paper Jam Tray", right Toner and off switch, front feed slot. But you should know that before buying.
* The front feet are not made of rubber, so transferred, the fan vibration z. B. in wooden shelves as a speaker cabinet and thus low-frequency amplified. The manufacturer saves ... 2 cents (?), The paying customer pays with nerves and it adhered, at best, felt pads underneath, so that peace prevails. Ridiculous.
* As always not supplied USB cable. When figured the first manufacturer to forget many customers that ordering with / to buy and then angry when they want to take part in Sunday's operation? This saving urge annoying, but also toner is already there!

My conclusion: In terms of sensational price a great product with very few and minor weaknesses.
