(5 out of 5) by Mr. Dat Heffern on Nov 28, 2009 (England)The only aspect I haven't tried is the fax, but everything else works fine. Also the compatible ink cartridges are readily available for this model.

**** Outstanding Unit ******
(5 out of 5) by Mr. C. Brittain on Nov 25, 2009 (UK)With an ageing scanner and Epsom 980 printer on its way out I thought why not have an all in one unit. I've heard various statements about how vulnerable they can be, however this unit came in at a very reasonable price. Once unpacked the install process was simple and quick.
We have had it for around three weeks and can honestly say that this is a fine unit with great facilities. We have no hesitation in recommending this all in one unit. The printing is very realistic in terms of colour and whilst it might not be the quickest (why hurry things) it is in our opinion one of the quietest. One of the concerns we had was how much printing we would get from the really thin cartridges. We have printed 45 A4 full page calenders with many sheets of text and image documents and still have half the capacity of the supplied cartridges. Ink usage therefore is looking like being quite good. I would agree with Dave's comments above about getting the most out of the slim cartridges.
The scanner is another quiet and efficient facility and produces very good scans from documents to photographs. One of the best things we have found is the extremely eficent OCR work, boy has that come on. I can recall OCR when it was first introduced and the really poor results returned. I have found the OCR to compatible with almost all documents with around 96% accuracy.
To cut a long story short, you will be hard pushed to find a better unit than this especially at this price. Don't be put off thinking that at such low prices you are skipping on quality as that simply does not apply here.

Fantastic Machine
(5 out of 5) by Robert Stoker on Nov 22, 2009 (Workington, England)This printer was so easy to set up, I'm blind (I use the computer with the aid of special talking software)and it was so simple I never had to have any help - great machine and great value too.
