I'm amazed! It was definitely worth the money!

I use for a small private enterprise. Printing documentation, labels, stickers, business cards, plastic panels of electrical equipment, film keyboards, photomasks for UV printing.

Pros

Workhorse. Double-sided printing with a resolution of 1200x1200dpi. Bought in Abius in September 2022. He cost me 20 along with delivery. In addition, I bought a Mitsubishi toner in the expense box, 550g each. each color. (this is another 12 with delivery) Total 32 The original toner immediately poured out of the cartridges. From the factory there were 16g of color and 19g of black. Filled full cartridges with purchased toner. When the toner runs out, the printer reports an error, which is reset using the buttons on the control panel. I worked at one gas station for 2 years and started reporting an error. Black ended completely, colored less than half. Refueled, reset the errors and work on. It turns out that with such a consumption of black toner, there will be enough for another 10-15 refills, and color may be more. It is unlikely that I will use it for 20-40 years)), but you can count on ten years, in this situation. Let's see.

Cons

The scanner has a resolution of 600x600 dpi. With a print resolution of 1200x1200, this is more than strange. Also, I don’t know how native toner works. The one that I fell asleep supposedly Mitsubishi works, but there are jambs. The blue tint on paper prints with artifacts. Not always and not very noticeable. Depends on the quality of the image itself. If you print a few blue pictures, then it seems to normalize. Printing on film with this toner is a lottery. Both black and color toner do not adhere well. Sometimes it turns out well the first time, but more often you have to run it again. Fortunately, the printer feeds paper and film well and re-image matches are about 60-70%. It turns out from ten sheets of film - 6-7 is normal, the rest is for discarding. This is the price of the consequences of using non-original toner.
