This Laser Printers give to us some advantages, like this :
1. Fast But Expensive
At the time I purchased this color laser, it was the best of the home consumer color laser printers available. What sold me was its blazing speed for both B&W and color printing. I have since added a second paper tray devoted exclusively to envelopes. While it is certainly a professional machine, therein lies one of its major drawbacks, i.e., no single feed envelope feeder slot. You have to manually change the feeder configuration and the software preferences each and every time you print even a single envelope. Sometimes the software gets stuck and won't revert to letter feed, and I have to shut it off and reboot to get it to go back. This is a very expensive printer to operate. Adding options is very costly. The unit is now as large as a Volkswagon too. I have had it about 8 months and am down to 1/4 left on the toner (an average home user and not doing photo printing). To replace the four toner cartridges will cost as much as the entire printer cost. It is hard to find supplies...

2. Overpriced and shoddy supplies
I purchased this printer largely because of the great price, the large capacity toner cartridges and the reputation of Konica/Minolta. The print cartridges are expensive, do not print but about half of the 6000 projected page rate, and tend to develop print problems long before the toner is used up. Steer clear of this product, because outside of speed, it simply does not perform as advertised.

good printer!
I do a lot of printing at home, a ink jet printer would only last me 8 months. I bought this printer intending to put it through heavy use. It exceeded my expectations, the color often prints at around 30 PPM. Costs can be kept down by using after market toner. My price per sheet is around .08 a sheet, compared to my old ink jets printers, that's cheap. I keep close track of my usage, I have got over 5000 sheets on most cartridges. I have printed around 13,000 sheets with this beast without any problems.
