We have one of these in the office. Very good. Prints and scan everything up to A3. MDF performs well and can get through a good stack of paper. Printing and scanning duplex mode too which might be useful to some.

I get compatible inks very cheaply from eBay and they seem to last a long enough time. When you install the compatibles the printer does throw up a warning that you're not using genuine ones but you just tap on the screen to proceed past it and all is well. Updating the firmware has not affected this so update without worry.

I keep the firmware up to date because I'm hoping that they're going to fix an issue where occasionally the scanner can't be found on a Mac (printer features function as normal). Wireless or ethernet connection; it happens the same but a power cycle of the printer and computer generally solves it. I have assigned static ip to unit but doesn't fix it.

I know the deal has expired by now but thought this information might be useful to someone.

Awesome price but for laser printers only

​even cheaper here... only problem is packaging MAYBE damaged https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/ol/B000JTOY2C/ref=mw_dp_olp?ie=UTF8&condition=all £2.90 a reem for a3 is a Bargain

you'll have to buy several reems or make the total order over £20 to qualify for free delivery

Could anyone recommend bargain A3 printer paper ?

That looks absolutely brand new.
Mine has been opened by a customer but looks like that's it. It's been resealed with black tape.

Yeah mine has them too. Looks brand new aside from the clearly opened box.

Just been playing with this big boy and I'm very impressed with its capabilities :smile:

mine was Brand new. it had all the blue sticky holding the components together and had all the original plastic wrapping along the LCD display etc.

Mines just arrived :smile: ordered 2 days ago, delivered today

Thanks Magichew

What inks are you all using?

It's ink, in your printer.
Short enough for you?

I posted it because maybe some people will consider it fiddly, I have kids, it will not work here.

Looks like you can get a continuous ink system for it too!

EDIT: Video for those who don't know what a continuous ink system is

just don't update the firmware, disable updates

Cheers. Ordered. Hope it's like new.

I think its a used one at that price

Does it need specific software/firmware to use cheap compatible inks?

Daft question but I assume this can do A4 too?

Cheap inks anyone?

Thanks naz, purchased.

​that's a good question as I have an old epson at the moment and I can't use the scan when inks are empty however I usually find epson the be reliable and cost-effective so I'm taking the punt lol

Does anyone know if the scanner function can be used when the inks are empty?

Common sense would suggest that it would but I've had a multifunction printer that wouldn't do any non-printing functions until I bought replacement ink. I don't want that happening again ,

yes I believe so. checkout the unboxing on YouTube

Does it really have an A3 scanner?
