I just recently purchased my first printer after using a cast-off dot matrix that belonged to my mother. What impresses me about this printer was its ease of setting up and simple to follow directions.
Another factor in purchasing it was its price, $69.95 Canadian which is quite reasonable for a colour jetprinter. It has a pop up window that during your printer shows your ink level and what page your printer is on.
It also tells you when printing has started or stopped and if you are running low on ink or paper. I would recommend this printer to anyone looking to buy a printer for the first time.
