Limitations
The standard memory of 256 MB can be limiting when handling large print jobs or complex documents, requiring optional upgrades for improved performance. The print speed of up to 24 pages per minute is moderate but may be insufficient for high-volume print demands. The scanner's ADF capacity is 50 sheets, which can be restrictive for heavy scanning tasks. The device lacks advanced finishing options such as stapling or hole punching. Replacement toner kits can be relatively costly compared to competing models. Firmware updates have declined since model release, which might affect long-term compatibility and feature improvements.
