Price/performance TOP
I had a Canon Pixma (colour) printer for years and one of the colour cartridges was constantly empty - it was extremely tedious and expensive to constantly replace the cartridges etc. for relatively little printing work. - I was therefore looking for a laser printer and this laser printer fulfils my needs exactly (regularly printing something b&w and scanning documents) - for this reason: highly recommended for anyone who has/is looking for the same needs.
Pro
- Small
- Relatively favourable (in maintenance)
- Quickly installed
- Chic & well made
- App works perfectly
Contra
- Reduction in print quality
- no (closed) container for paper
The printer and scanner work
After a few start-up problems, the printer now works for me without any problems via WLAN, even with Linuxmint. Contrary to other comments, the HP package even includes a toner cartridge. It would therefore not have been necessary to buy an additional toner module. Since I actually only work with Linuxmint, I find the diversions via Microschrott incredibly tedious, my laptop takes an insanely long time both when starting up and shutting down, Microschrott probably realises that I have not been a fan of this operating system for a long time and is now taking revenge this way.
Pro
- Very favourable
- everything you need, including toner!
Contra
- Installation initially only via Microschrott Windows
EXCELLENT!
I have always been very satisfied with the DIGITEC service - Excellent!
Difficult for Linux
The printer is certainly good for Windows, but I have not been able to get it to work under Linux (Ubuntu). The help from the manufacturer was of little value.
Good buy
The set-up worked well (following the instructions) and was easy to understand. I find it positive that the printer can be connected to both the PC and the mobile phone via WLAN. I didn't find setting it up on the network very difficult (I have little PC knowledge).
This means that the location is not directly linked to the proximity of a desktop PC. It is also possible to print directly from the mobile phone - so Family members without PC access can also print documents from the mobile.
I think the price/performance ratio for a device with so many functions is fine and justified. The lack of a paper tray makes the printer less suitable for continuous use, which is something you should be aware of and bear in mind when buying.Pro
- Connection via WLAN or cable possible
- Printing, scanning + copying possible
- Ideal for occasional use
Contra
- No paper cassette available
Super
Pro
- Prints beautifully
- Easy to install
