    Review 1 of 8

    Price Paid:  $70.00 from Gateway

    Summary:
    I loved this printer! It worked great for printing black and white papers for classes, and full color "home" projects. This baby lasted four years before I finally decided it was time for a new one. I have decided to go with another Stylus (the C88) as I was so pleased with this brand.

    Strengths:
    Definately cost effective.

    Weaknesses:
    Color printing is rather slow, so not recommended for the impatient.

    Customer Service:
    I never required customer service for this product. The utilities provided always solved any snags I came across.
