most of my printing is done on a balck and white laser printer. I only need the printer bit of this m/c for the odd photo. Unfortunately, I seem to get only one photo per set of colour cartridges, as the self cleaning function just gobbles ink; so that's £30 per photo. Not bad for a £30 m/c. And the self cleaning idea isn't so cleverbecause if I don't replace a cartridge, as soon as the ink runs out, it dries up anyway.. I can't even use it as a scanner, if the ink runs out. Without the printer, it'd make a good scanner. I need 120 words. OK. The Software is good as it offers you a menu of options for the disposition of the scanned items. (although it quickly fills up a folder of cryptically back-up copies). The Optical character recognition is good for printed text and the resultant doc needs little in terms of tidying up.

Welcome to Ciao. Sorry I can't rate this any higher but there isn't enough info here for me (also a few typos which made it difficult to read).
