“Great printer, but exposed paper tray let it down”
I've had laser printers before and this replaced one. Setup was fairly painless, but switching it on wasn't obvious. The quick setup leaflet was for a different version of this printer. The on/off button is to the left of the stop/exit button in the middle of a number of buttons on the panel, so it is not user friendly. It should be in a different location or a standalone button. Printing is very good and quick, far faster than my previous printers, and the quality is very good. Duplex printing is very important and whilst it isn't automatic with this printer, it prints the even set of pages and then prompts to place the printed pages back into the paper tray and then completes the printing of the odd pages. So this is very good. There is one major issue though, the paper tray is exposed and extends 140mm in front of the printer. So the total footprint of the printer is increased. What this means is that the exposed paper will accumulate with dust and general detritus or paper will need to be inserted when required for printing. What we want is paper tray that can be loaded with paper and left. Why for the life of me would anyone design and sell a machine like this in 2019, it is a design fault and I can see myself replacing it with something else in the future. Apart from the paper tray issue the printer is very good.
