Key Advantages

The device offers high-quality color and black-and-white printing with efficient ink utilization. Its wireless and mobile device compatibility allows for easy remote printing via popular mobile apps. Automatic duplex printing helps save paper without manual intervention. A 2.7-inch color touchscreen interface simplifies navigation and job management. The integrated scanner and fax functionality enhance office workflow convenience. INKvestment Tank cartridges provide higher page yields leading to reduced cost per page.

Limitations

Print speed, while adequate for moderate office use, may not meet demands for high-volume printing environments. The paper input tray capacity is limited to 150 sheets, requiring frequent replenishment in busy settings. The scanner resolution, while sufficient for standard documents, may be less optimal for professional-grade imaging needs. Color accuracy is suitable for typical office documents but not for high-end photo printing. The presence of ink cartridges can lead to occasional drying if the printer is unused for extended periods. There is no automatic document feeder (ADF) for multi-page scanning or copying tasks, which limits efficiency in some workflows.
