Summary: Dont believe the hype.
Comment: Being honest this printer is not bad at all. In this technology age, people are looking for multifunctional printers that does everything, but write your homework for you. If you only need a printer that just prints this is a very great printer. This printer is perfect for children who do not need to fax and do other things. Even for adults who simply want to print documents. The size is perfect for the average desk space. It prints pretty fast despite the previous reviews. In fact it prints better than the printer i bought after it. It was a very new dell and I sent it back and kept using this one.

Summary: not bad - for a freebie
Comment: I got this printer free with my laptop purchase, and it's not bad. Really. I have a b&w laser printer for large documents, so I use this for color and smaller jobs. It's small enough that it's portable, so I take it with me on scrapbooking weekend trips. It's nice having a computer and printer of my own so I can do computer journaling for my book, and USB printers are horribly expensive.
It's quirky and has occasionally eaten an expensive sheet of vellum paper or fed a sheet of paper crookedly, but since I use this primarily for scrapbooking, I can usually crop the errors out of the paper. But I've been able to print on oddly sized pieces of paper most of the time with no trouble, which is convenient.
I can't speak to its photo print quality, but I get my digital photos printed at shutterfly.com. I would never trust my photos to this thing... :)

Summary: The worst printer in the world.
Comment: This is the worst printer I have ever seen, met, read about, or heard tell of. Nothing about it seems to work. The pages constantly misfeed, as if some mysterious force is actually preventing ANY of them from going in straight. And you know how some printers will occasionally grab 2 or 3 pages at once? Yesterday mine grabbed 9 pages, in a scattered sort of way so that I got a little bit of my document on all 9 pages. Who knows, maybe it thought I wanted a fun little puzzle.
The overall image quality is horrid; and occasionally, it will refuse to draw ink from a cartridge even when I KNOW the cartridge is full. The reason I know this is because I've tried multiple cartridges; but more telling is the fact that when it "gets thirsty" it will start to draw ink again.
I give this printer an A+ for personality; not because I think it's stylish, but because it's really like owning a finicky cat, or a wounded dog. In fact, it does so little printing that I sometimes forget it's actually a printer. Never a dull moment.
But for speed, reliability, and quality, it gets an F, an F, and another F - as in ZERO PERCENT. And it comes as no shock me at all that you can buy it here on Amazon for less than the cost of a Skim Latte Grande at Starbucks.

Summary: If you have to cheap out this is the way to go!
Comment: I got this because, I just can't have everything in life, and it is obviously the most affordable out there. I found so many bad reviews but took the chance and am GLAD I DID. You will find complaints about the price of cartridges, but you will also find there are more and more (professional) ink refill stores popping up everywhere. I pay $14.99 for a black ink refill and $16.99 for color. The ink is not "universal" junk and the service takes just 10 minutes, is guaranteed and is just as good as the real thing. The printer is compatible with most computers/operating systems (just make sure). The photo quality is not the best but good for the money, you do have to specify what you are printing and what type of paper and use the best quality print job to get good results. I am picky but frugal and I think for the price, you will be satisfied. FOUR STARS FOR THE PRICE!
