We like:
Affordable; very good print quality; no-nonsense design and interface; highly expandable
We don't like:
Slow colour print speeds; base model has low paper capacity; no LCD on control panel

Paper, parallel, or USB cable
CNET UK judgement:
This colour printer has a bare-bones configuration and slow colour print speeds, but it is extremely affordable, offers great print quality, and can be upgraded as your printing needs change
