    Top device - price/performance is right.

    My expectations were exceeded for this price range. Even refilling ink is a must.

    My opinion: In this price range, you don't need to expect fast printing, automatic sheet feed, double-sided printing or commercial-quality photo printing. But if you are an occasional user and print out a form, a ticket or a few pages of text with diagrams, then the device will be useful. Even photos look quite good from a distance of 30 cm. The scanner works better than my other, 15-year-old device. In my opinion, the copy function is absolutely practical for forms.
    I connect and use the device to my computer via USB cable, which is why I can't comment on the Wi-Fi and the app.

    Why I'm so happy with the device: I would gladly have invested up to 15 times more money for a printer if I had received a reliable printer for the next few years in return. However, cheeky business practices seem to have become established on the printer market, such as
    - Unjustified prices for ink cartridges
    - Constantly changing print head types, so that it is unclear whether you will still get a replacement in 5 years' time
    - Even more expensive ink tank printers deactivate after a certain number of uses/print pages (ink sponge full)

    In view of these business practices, I wanted to limit my investment as much as possible and am now enjoying a low-cost device where you can limit the running costs by refilling cartridges.
    There is a lot of information on the internet about the running costs of inkjet printers. Under the title "Printer Ink Scam Myths Tested" you can find a YouTube video, which was essential for the purchase decision of the device I bought here.

    It still goes

    I have been running on the low ink warning for the colour ink cartrige for a year now, waiting for it to say when it is done so I can put the new fresh ones in, but printing like once a week on it slightly coloured text documents seems to not bother it at all. Great product. I use it wired via USB not wireless via it's wifi.
