Limitations
The printer's maximum print resolution, while suitable for documents, is limited for high-end photo printing. It does not include an automatic document feeder (ADF), which can slow multi-page scanning or faxing. The LCD interface is basic, lacking touchscreen capabilities found in some competing models. Scanner resolution maxes out at 600 x 1200 dpi, which is adequate but not superior for detailed image scanning. The fax function is standard but limited in advanced fax options. Also, the printer is relatively bulky compared to some compact office inkjets.
