Limitations
The Artisan 1430 lacks wireless connectivity options, requiring cable connection for printing, which may limit convenience in modern workspaces. Print speeds can be relatively slow when printing at the highest quality settings or on large media sizes. It does not support automatic duplex (double-sided) printing, which can increase paper usage. Scanner functionality is not included, necessitating a separate device for digital image capture. The ink cartridges can be costly, and using third-party inks may compromise print quality and longevity. Firmware and driver updates have been discontinued, potentially causing compatibility issues with newer operating systems.
