Very easy to set up and very economical for our daily printing needs. The printer mostly does the job it was designed to do.
The only negative is that it frequently will pull in blank pages in between actual pages, picking up two pages at a time instead of one. This can be annoying, especially on large jobs, when doing double sided printing, since this lead to the order of all the following pages being wrong unless we manually check each printed page.
