Advantages: dirt cheap- very reliable

Disadvantages: drivers are a pain to install, ethernet socket not very well situated.

Once we found ourselves in the market for a printer, it did'nt take us long to ffind this all-in-one (printer,scanner and copier) for £30. It's very much a no-frills machine, which is exactly what we wanted, and at a price breakdown of a tenner per apllication, plus you get two cartridges supplied, i wouldnt like to make it for this price. It was and still is too good to be true!

The software is a boit of a pain to install (it took me an hour!) and the cable connector at the back was a poor fit,due to the fact that there is a plastic flange on the back of the cable which prevented it from being a nice tight fit, but a quick one-two with a sharp chisel soo corrected this and its a small niggle and no major disater.

Updates from the internet are forthcoming, and, unlike other printers i have owned, it dosent sieze up and refuse to work.

Summary: Printer, scanner, copier, plus two cartridges all for £30? buy it!
