Advantages: print quality, size, speed

Disadvantages: Slightly 'clunky' noises, ink cartridge costs

When printing in large volumes it is standard to use a laser printer. but what if you need colour and can't afford colour laser prices? I have had my 895Cxi for 18 months and to be honest have hammered it on a daily basis. I've got through too many ink cartridges, which are not cheap - but it has never let me down.
It's not the quietest on the market now - but it's speed is still there up with the best inkjets. What is suprising is the consistent quality and the excellent drivers, which I have found to be bugbears of printers I've owned in the past.
One critisism I would have (and this may be due to the age and amount of use my machine has had) is it sometimes fails to feed envelopes from the special envelope slot it has. but this is being picky of what I think is a stunning product.
