Key Advantages

The superior wireless connectivity provides ease of installation and multiple device access. The automatic duplex printing saves significant paper and lowers operational costs. Four separate ink cartridges allow replacing only the color that runs out, making it economical. High-quality color and black prints meet professional standard requirements. The built-in fax supports PC-FAX functions to simplify workflow. The compact design fits well in small office spaces while maintaining functionality.

Limitations

Print speeds are moderate compared to laser printers, with color prints being slower. Ink yields are relatively low, leading to frequent cartridge replacements in high-volume use. The scanner resolution is sufficient for documents but less ideal for high-resolution photo scanning. The 20-sheet automatic document feeder handles small batch jobs but may struggle with larger office workloads. The multifunction interface screen is small and may be less intuitive for some users. Overall operating costs may be higher due to inkjet technology compared to laser alternatives.
