Unfortunately, after removing all packaging and shipping tape, this printer immediately turned out to be DOA. At power-up, the status bars flashed alternately white/amber and reported a support code error of '5100', indicating a paper jam or printhead problem.

One thing about this particular model seems like an attractive feature: it uses one cartridge for each color (5 in total), so you can replace them individually when they run out. Sounds like a good idea, but bingo again, buying individual cartridges instead of kits is even more expensive. , not on hardware but on the sale of ink. Unless you make the reckless attempt to buy third-party replacement cartridges or refill kits (both of which I've seen many printers damaged), you're paying exorbitant prices for them.
