Limitations

This model lacks wireless connectivity such as Wi-Fi or Ethernet, limiting network printing capabilities. It has no automatic duplex printing feature, requiring manual page turnaround to print double-sided. The two-cartridge ink system can lead to higher ink replacement costs and less efficient ink usage compared to individual cartridge designs. Print speeds are relatively slow, making it less ideal for high-volume tasks. Limited advanced features, such as touchscreen controls or cloud printing support are absent. The printer’s scanner resolution and color fidelity are adequate but not suitable for professional-grade image capture.
