The machine I used years and who has children in the study who knows how many need the copier, scanner and printer especially. The cartridges are the only shortcoming, the originals are very very expensive. Filling has never really worked, bought refill cartridges functioned sometimes more bad than good. Too bad, because the device maketh fun and above all the scanning software from HP was better than my current Epson XP-312th The I like not the paper feeding from the top back, because I loaded the front bottom better found at HP. but is probably just getting used to things. Although it is an absolute entry-level device / was, I was with the scan results (including photographs), printing and the entire handling including software (HP - Solution Center) always more than satisfied. The expensive cartridges drove me to the competition from Epson, where I can use cheap cartridges in the XP-312 and these also individually in respective black and color. Nevertheless, my recommendation for a possibly good used unit.
