1.0 out of 5 stars Worst printer EVER!, March 29, 2009

By	P. J. Ferris (ICT) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Always having to troubleshoot through problems...a 2 minute print job turns into an hour. Ink cartridges do not last long at all. After the color ink that came with the printer ran out, I have never been able to get another color cartridge to work. Do not buy this printer!

2.0 out of 5 stars Avoid Dell if you think you'll ever need customer service, August 23, 2009

By	CintiBonnie "bonnie8" (Cincinnati, Ohio United States) - See all my reviews

I have a Dell All-in-One (same concept, different model) that I now have to throw away because I misplaced the original disk with drivers/software. I needed to re-install it, could not find the disk, and upon calling Dell was advised that I would have to pay close to $50 for any assistance, even just another copy of the disk, since the item was "out of warranty". Everything needed is not available for download online. Given the inordinate number of hours already wasted, the frustration encountered, the lack of any cooperation from Dell, and the low prices on new equipment, I finally concluded that it makes more sense to buy a new All-in-One from a different company than to sink more money into a business that clearly does not value me as a customer. However, if future customer service is not the deciding factor for you, other points to consider: (1) the actual equipment seems to have held up well over the past 3 years with no mechanical problems during average use, and (2) the Dell ink cartridges are very expensive but arrive very quickly after ordering. Overall, I do not recommend the Dell brand in any model.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very good printer, May 22, 2009

By	L. Mack - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I have owned this printer for about 9-10 months now, and have yet to have any problems. The setup was simple and accomplished with no difficulties, although it did take about 10-15 minutes to load the drivers and other accompanying software. I feel like the ink cartridges last a reasonable amount of time, and far longer than the cartridges for my previous Lexmark printer (plus a lower replacement cost). Overall, I have been extremely happy with this purchase!
