Good Points
Fast, good looking print. Handles a variety of media. DVD/CD printing is wonderful. I wouldn't go back to printing on label sheets after using the CD/DVD tray to print.
Bad Points
CD/DVD tray feed is a bit of trouble. It seems to need help getting started (used to feed by itself, but now it needs a bit of a push to get it to grab), probably related to the thin, transparent tabs on the front of the CD/DVD tray eventually breaking off.
General Comments
I love this printer. I've had it for years and it works on things my other printers don't handle very well. It's envelope printing is a case in point. I print all my envelopes using this printer. Otherwise I use labels and a laser printer when the volume is really high.
I love the CD/DVD direct printing too. I can't understand why anyone uses Lightscribe when this is available. Watch for sales on the media to keep costs down though. The results look very professional.
Cool, it works with Linux!
