    I own this Printer and I can honestly say NO, this printer is a lot of work and I have lots of Problems. When I do get good prints the printer shifts the print sideways. The support is complete CRAP and the power supply is the first thing to replace before unboxing the printer. Parts were missing and they charged me twice for parts I didn't get but I was reimbursed after going after them publicly to get me to shut up. I bought this printer in September but it could have changed since then. I wish I didn't buy it but I did and now I Regret it, my advice would be to see if you can buy locally so if you have problems you can go directly to where you bought it.
