Interesting printer which…

I was looking for a printer where refills would not be expensive or tied into a plan. I am interested in reducing waste so unnecessary cartridges sold me on this model.
Filling the printer with the ink is very easy. Twist of the cap, lift the lid to the ink compartment and the ink automatically fills.
Setting up the printer is a little tricky. Even with the printer right next to the router the wifi connection drops a lot.
Printing is quite slow to what I am used to. The paper capacity is also more limited. I believe around 50 sheets of A4 may fit into the top loading printer at any given time.
I have printed out documents and photos so far. On the app there doesn’t seem to be an option to specify your own size of paper, and is limited to a few generic sizes. Photos come out lovely if I am honest. No streaking or colour blur. Even on draft photo prints are perfectly passable.
I would recommend this printer to those keen on reducing printing costs, and those mindful of the environment.
I wouldn’t recommend it it those not technically minded as there is very little guidance should you get stuck setting up the printer or when it gets stuck in a loading loop.
There is one niggle and this is there is a beeping noise that is very quite when the printer is switch on.
I am happy with my purchase and personally would recommend to friends.
