I bought this printer in Jan. 2011 and it was broken 3 months later. It got a paper jam one day and never fed paper into the printer properly after that. It pulls to one side each time you try to print and then jams. It felt very flimsy from the first day I got it, so I guess I didn’t expect it to last for years.thought it would last longer than 3 months though. Ink cartridges run dry very fast too. They are very small and feel light compared with my last HP printer’s cartridges ( which I’ve had for over 8 years by the way, and the printer still works) . I have to say the scanner worked well for me and made great copies while it lasted. I wouldn’t buy this printer again.
