Great all in one printer. overall, very happy since i got it for a very good price at Fry's electronics. It seems to drain ink pretty quickly and I wish it had a phone fax feature. i had to download the driver from the lexmark website to get the WI-FI going. For some reason, it didn't want to work with the CD-driver. But the wi fi is awesome and quick. but overall, u get a lot of bang for your buck.

The software is a bit buggy, but I was able to work around the issues -- that is, until it died 6 days after the warranty expired. Lexmark offered me 20% off a new printer and no apology. McMenimen.net LLC - http://www.mcmenimen.net

We have had this printer installed for just over a week now. We are currently printing to it from 3 computers in the house with no problems whatsoever. The main thing to do is look carefully at the manual, and follow the instructions exactly when installing it, making sure to disable any and all security software including antivirus when installing it on each computer. It prints quickly enough and does very good and quick copies. The software popups aren't really a problem since we appreciate seeing the printing status and amount of ink left. Besides you can disable all that straight from the popup itself if you click on the little asterisk shaped button on the popup labeled "appearance". The reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is for 2 things. You have to have the printer manually turned on to print - which can be bothersome if you are printing from another room. The second is that photos tend to come out kind of dark, even when using photo paper. I tried adjusting the brightness in the photo software but it still didn't make skin tones, etc turn out quite right. For photos, think we will stick with our old wired HP with a photo ink cartridge which prints photos perfectly. But for general scanning, copying and printing wirelessly, it works quite well.
