I replaced a HP non wireless for this junk. I thought the options on it made it worth a try. This printer only prints 50% of what I send to it because it is always jamming. The print head constantly hangs up on the paper and gets stuck. Also it uses ink even when your not printing. I had to set it up four times to get the system to work. Don't waste your money on this, buy a HP.

I purchased this item mainly to replace my older fax machine that used films. I don't receive many faxes, so it took a long time for the last machine to replace the film, and then it went crazy. (After I put the new film in but keep saying need a new one....) So I decided to get a inkjet machine. At the time(over a year ago), this was one of high rated and reasonable price (I paid close to $300), but not long after I got it, the ink just gone done a lot (used less then 10 pages). I read one of the review somewhere, the machine will use the color ink even you only print out black and white. And if you don't replace the inks, the machine will stop working. I normally only buy from the manufacturer, but it would cost $40-$50 to replace all, I was happy to get good deal from Amazon market place, it saved me a lot. But same thing happen again, the ink gone down (almost all gone), without me received more then few pages of faxes, just unbelievable.
Other then the ink issue, the phone works well. I had used the printer couple times when I first got it, and the color just not acceptable to me (to print photos), my HP printer does better job, so this one just stay as phone/fax machine. For it's current price at Amazon for $150, I think it's decent price for it's value, but you must prepare to deal with ink cost, until a better solution come out, I will keep getting cheap ink from Amazon.
