I have always brought Epson all in one printers. And this is my latest acquisition. At the time I did not have extra money at the time of this purchase, so I went for a budget version scanner and printer all in one. This is a lightweight compact printer, which came complete with cartidges. The instructions were easy to understand and the installation disc was very simple, the installation was quick and it sailed through with ease. The scanner is simple and quick, and when you enter the printer preference box it is easy to understand and all functions understandable. For a small printer this does the job of a big printer with ease, and never struggles with any task you throw at it, and very quick. When it comes to cartridge changing, once you figure out where the ink cartridges go, the installation is very easy and require the least time possible. The ingenious idea of the location of the ink cartridges is a brilliant piece of thinking, and space saving. This is a worth while buy, whether on a budget or not.
