It's narrow and fits into a small space. The draft printing is good.
-
Print time is quite slow and it's noisy. My black cartridge has been problematic. I don't think it was being recognised by the printer and I had to change it for a new one after printing one A4 photo and about less that 15 pages of draft black text. Maybe I just have a problem with my printer. I'm waiting to see what it reacts like to a different cartridge. If it was actually empty then it's poor ink economy.
Also, if you're buying it because you have limited depth space, you should know that the power cable connection isn't inset at the printer end and sticks out about an inch and a half out the back - I had to cut a hole in my desk so I could sit the printer fully on my narrow shelf.

Very slow, especially on switch on.
Make sure you turn it on a few minutes before you want to use it because god knows what it does for several minutes whilst it warms up.
Also the black catridge that came with the machine failed to be recognised by the printer 5 days after installation and had to quickly buy a replacement. Fortunately it hasn't happened again but it doesn't fill you with confidence that the catridge IC recognition chip system works reliably.
And also its not particularily quiet whist printing.
