What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm
The title claims Wi-Fi and cloud connectivity, but the technical details list Ethernet and USB only. Confirm wireless and cloud functions for the exact listing before buying. The claimed six ink bottles are not quantified in the explicit box contents, which lists only “Ink Bottles”. Print speed is given as ppm in the details and ipm in the feature text. The monochrome print-resolution entries also use different units and figures, and the screen is listed as LCD in one field but described as a touchscreen in the feature text. Treat these listing details as inconsistent or unconfirmed rather than settled specifications.

Customer feedback highlights satisfaction with print quality and perceived running-cost savings. Those points may matter to frequent users considering the refillable tank and claimed high ink yields, but they are customer impressions rather than proof of a particular print result or cost. Aggregate ratings are mostly five-star but include a notable one-star share, so experiences are not uniformly positive.
Positive themes
- Customers report satisfaction with print quality.
- Customers describe the printer as cost-effective, with one noting that it would cost far less to run.
