I would buy again.
Top device - price/performance is right.
My expectations were exceeded for this price range. Even refilling ink is a must.
My opinion: In this price range, you don't need to expect fast printing, automatic sheet feed, double-sided printing or commercial-quality photo printing. But if you are an occasional user and print out a form, a ticket or a few pages of text with diagrams, then the device will be useful. Even photos look quite good from a distance of 30 cm. The scanner works better than my other, 15-year-old device. In my opinion, the copy function is absolutely practical for forms.
I connect and use the device to my computer via USB cable, which is why I can't comment on the Wi-Fi and the app.
Why I'm so happy with the device: I would gladly have invested up to 15 times more money for a printer if I had received a reliable printer for the next few years in return. However, cheeky business practices seem to have become established on the printer market, such as
- Unjustified prices for ink cartridges
- Constantly changing print head types, so that it is unclear whether you will still get a replacement in 5 years' time
- Even more expensive ink tank printers deactivate after a certain number of uses/print pages (ink sponge full)
In view of these business practices, I wanted to limit my investment as much as possible and am now enjoying a low-cost device where you can limit the running costs by refilling cartridges.
There is a lot of information on the internet about the running costs of inkjet printers. Under the title "Printer Ink Scam Myths Tested" you can find a YouTube video, which was essential for the purchase decision of the device I bought here.
Pro
- Very good price/performance ratio
- Printer works under Linux (CUPS)
- Scanner works under Linux
Contra
- As with any inkjet printer: high cartridge prices

Superb printer
It's a great printer with lots of features, and it's easy to use with the mobile app. What's more, the basic pack includes ice paper so you can test print your best photos. For the price, I can't fault it, and I highly recommend it.
