For one I am an absolute technophobe and for another this is my third printer. Previous were Lexmark (which was rubbish)and Epson. The Epson DX8400 was a similarly priced all in one model but the downside was that because I rarely used it the printheads got blocked. I bought replacement inks twice at overinflated prices and because it was just out of guarantee Epson customer services suggested I buy a replacement as it would cost as much again to repair. What a waste of money! Total costs per copy were around £10 for the use I had out of it! Never buy Epson! This Kodak printer was easy to install (I did it myself) and so far, is offering excellent quality prints. It's a good home printer for occasional use and other technophobes who don't need all singing, all-dancing models (although I probably won't use alot of it's additional features) I like it.Read full review
I bought this printer due to the relatively low cost of ink replacement and because my old Canon was on the blink. Had the printer 6 weeks now and finding it very easy to use, the print quality is really very good, the wireles and cloud printing is a real bonus it is reasonably fast if a little noisy. I only have my old canon I455 to compare it with which was 7 years old, but it is head and shoulders above that in terms of print quality.
DO not believe the claims about this printer being the cheapest for ink costs, the colour cartridge supplied printed 10 sheets of A4 photos then gave up. When the printer decides that one of the colours is empty you have to throw away the entire cartridge. It won't let you continue until you think its empty and I'm very suspicious about how much ink is left when it decides this. There is no way at present to refill the cartridges and reset the chip. I should have purchased a Cannon with separate colour tanks or a HP all in one for £25 from Asda. The only good news is that there are third party combo ink packs on Ebay for £10 and these are really good.
the hero 5.1 is a remarkable machine, very economical, lots of fantastic features, quite simply the best printer i have ever used.
The item itself is great value for money, however Mac users watch out!!! On the box of the item it clearly states that the printer support Mac/OS system and for some reason I had trouble setting it up. It simply would not install and ended up getting rid of it. For Mac users HP would be highly recommended.
