The print quality of this printer is ok - no better or worse than other printers that I had so far (HP). Regarding consumption, I can not say much - but also seems to be ok (at least it is to me, for that matter, ;-) not misbehaving). However, what bothers me every time again, the sounds that are this thing at every "power up" and print yourself ... are bad !! Buy'm not just unhappy, but again I would not like him.
