I have to confess this was a hand-me-down as a friend of mine got an even better model but who cares its a quality printer.
It retails for about £170 from PC world and boasts a number of fancy functions.
First the pros, the printer is great quality, i have just printed of my PhD thesis ready for submission, and the software supplied is easy to install/use and make scanning documents onto your computer as easy as pressing a button.
The accompanying manual is a little difficult to digest but after time it sinks in. The printer is capable of printing from one edge of the page to the other and prints about 15 pages per minute, less if colour, more if B&W.
The printer and scanner/copier can both be used without switching the printer on from the panel on the printer from which you can decide how many copies, what quality etc..All this and you dont have to turn the computer on!!
The best bit has to be that you can insert your memory cards straight into the printer (see bottom right of body of printer in picture) and print off your pictures onto photo quality paper ready to put into the album.
Its downsides for me are that its a little too big but this size issue is based on the fact that i have a laptop and everything feels out of proportion!!!
Also the printer is a little too loud for my liking but im sure im just being picky..
Its a great all-in-one even if its a bit too pricey, but you expect to pay for quality and thats exactly what you get.
Oh and if you do lots of printing expect to get through a hell of a lot of ink!!!!!
