Great printer, falls a…

My first impressions of the printer were very good.
It was well packed to ensure no broken parts in transit.
Removing it from the packaging and setting it up was relatively straight forward.
Little diagrams to show what to do at which stage, the ink tanks were straight forward to fill up. My only worry was if the bottle was more than the tank, would it overflow and cause an issue.
However, it appears that each bottle is designed to fill a tank from empty to full. (Need to remember this when adding the replacement in hopefully around 3 years' time!
Not entirely sure what the print heads are for as never added these to a printer for?
They were possibly the thing I found least obvious part of the installation.
Connecting the printer to Wi-Fi has been nice and simple.
I downloaded the app on to my phone and it picked up the printer straight away
.
Now were all setup. I would say the build quality is good, however I wouldn't say for its price tag it meets the premium I would expect. I feels very similar to printers I have had for less.
However, I must stress, there is nothing wrong, just maybe me been picky!
Moving onto printing itself
The quality is great, have printed documents and photos, and for a home printer. I have no complaints.
I would like to of seen double sided printing for this price tag
It prints clear and it prints fast enough for most home usage.
So again, I would say it's very good, just not amazing.
In conclusion, this printer holds its own very well.
However, I feel the Ink tanks and not having to buy ink for roughly 3 years with average use, is where the price tag comes from
It's like a mid-range printer in terms of quality and features with a premium price tag for the ink element.
For many people this will be perfect and its why I have still rated this printer 4 stars.
