Introduction ************* I first bought this all in one printer/scanner/photo copier combo back in may 2003 from John Lewis in High Wycombe. I paid £250 which I thought was a fair price.
The Printer ************ I first used the printer to print a page from the official Nintendo website on cheats, and game tips The printout came out in about 10 seconds looking colourful bright and easy to read I was impressed with the colour, The printer is a little noisy but it prints out quickly so the sound doesn’t last long.
Photo Copier ************** To Photo copy you have to lift the flap on the front of the Pc put the document in you want to copy press the copy button in put in the number of copies you want then enter very easy to use. The quality was almost identical to the original copy. Wish I could do that with money. ;)
Scanner ********* The scanner is similar to the photocopier, lift the flap up and put your document/picture on top and scan it onto you pc. This allows having picture albums on your pc, that you can look at when ever you want.
Print cartridges ***************** I use two cartridges one for colour and ones for black let me tell a little about both.
Hp inkjet print cartridge 57 Tri colour *************************************** I got the print cartridge from Argos it cost £27.99, I think this is cheap as you get towards 400 prints for this, so it’s a good deal. I mainly use the colour for personal stuff. I got the following details off the hp website to give you a little bit more information on the product. Shelf life is 18 months – Dimensions (wxdxh) 140*112*35mm – Weight 54-56 g - Operating temperature range –15 to 35”c. This cartridge is very easy to insert into the pc takes about 2 minutes to takes out the old one and put in the new one.
Hp Inkjet Print Cartridge 56 Black ************************************ I got the print cartridge from Argos it cost £17.99 I thought this was expensive as the color was only 10 pounds more and you only got 450 copies. I mainly use this for business use for letters to customers and documents. I got the following information off the hp website to tell you a little more about the product. Shelf like is 18 months – dimensions (wxdxh) 140 x 112 x 35 mm – weight 51 – 53g operating temperature range 0 to 40”c. This cartridge is very easy to insert into the pc takes about 2 minutes to takes out the old one and put in the new one
Paper ******* The paper I use is xerox performer I got this paper free with the printer was part of the deal they were offering so cant really complain about the price. Ok to the paper it's self, it came in A4 size with 500 sheets of plain white paper for copier and lasers, the paper is of good quality and my printouts always coming out looking professional and shiny.
Quality ******** When it comes down to it, this is what really matters we all want good quality printouts that are readable and both good to look at in business and home alike. I think the quality of the printouts are fantastic but, if you want good printouts its worth having good quality paper because this makes so much difference to the quality of the printouts. I use to have an Epson and that was awful the colour always seem to be faded.
Overall ******** Having this multi functional printer is worth it just for the printer alone the quality is the best I’ve ever had, but you are also getting a photo copier and a scanner which are both additional and brilliant features I would definitely recommend this product value for money assured
