Got this to replace an inkjet that lasted more than a decade. I kind of miss the color, I kind of miss the resolution on graphics, but I don't miss the clogging ink, the paper bleed, the constant cha-cha for head cleaning / tank pressurization, etc. that the old inkjet constantly did. This thing fires up pretty quickly - it slightly flickers the lights plugged into the same power strip a bit so it must be pulling quick slugs of serious current here and there. Graphics could look better but it's fine for general stuff. Paper handling could beat the paper up somewhat less, but it is also fine for general stuff. Printer driver in XP works fine via USB, haven't tried the wireless. Footprint is small, but not that small when the paper feed door is open. The printer itself is fairly lightweight. Comes with AC and USB cords, and driver CD in the box.
One of the main draws for me to this machine however is the supposed ease of refilling toner (look it up on the web, it's a snap). I've got a soldering iron hole puncher and some toner left over from another laser printer that died sometime back, so I should be in clover for years to come. Only had it a week or so, will report back if it dies or if toner refill doesn't go as expected.
UPDATE : 2015-10-08
The toner low light came on maybe a month ago and I kept printing until there was obvious streaking on the page. The streaking started all at once, so keep an eagle eye on things if you are going the toner refill route. Took the cartridge out today and added some old toner I had laying around. Watched a good YouTube video on it (search for "mlt-d111s refill", it's the one by inkowl). Poked a hole with a soldering iron hole puncher designed for the purpose and added toner. You want to do this over a sink as toner gets everywhere. Wiped the area around the hole clean with a tissue, sealed it with a bit of aluminum tape, took it outside and blew the rest of the toner off. Don't expose the drum to a lot of light, and don't touch it! I stuck the refilled cart in the printer and voila! Black is the new black!
