Advantages: Free, Quick, good quality

Disadvantages: Expensive cartiridges, USB lead a bit dodgy

I recieved my Z32 with my new Tiny PC. It came (as most printers do) with all the cartridges etc., but the original cartridge lasted just one week. After this, i was forced to pay nearly £50 for the cartridges.
I have had no quibbles with the quality of print or with the software, although it does have a funny habit of not being found until the USB lead is removed and re-attached. For my needs (mainly black and white printing) the printer is fine, managing to print at a reasonable rate, almost that of a laser printer if you include the warm up times. Whats more, it was free. If it didnt cost me £50 every month, i'd give it 5*s.
