    It would not connect to our wifi. We returned it because it was a pain to setup.

    Quality printing is ok. But I feel that the epsom was most efficient. This one printed one of my presentations 4 tines and only one was fully printed.

    I loved this printer before I needed to print more than 3 papers at once. Trying to print pictures and every 5 pictures it completely ruins my photos with a bunch of colors and black marks. It also is entirely impossible to try to connect anything other than your mobile device through the app.

    Garbage printer and an even worse return policy with Best Buy, 14 days!? Multiple reconnection attempts of unplugging and replugging in may allow for a print. I should have not bought it. Called support and it didn't permanently resolve problems.

    Too soon for a total rating. The 2nd or 3rd time I used it, I had a paper jam. No other issues so far.

    If I could give this a negative star I would. I don’t use a printer very often and when I do it’s from my phone. Every time I went to use it I had to call tech support and they couldn’t fix it.

    May be good for novice users, but not for me. Went to a better and more robust printer.

    Geek Squad Guy said printer was a lemon

    Geek squad came to instal printer and said it’s defective. I waited a week for the installment appointments, with the rain, and being so busy, I didn’t have time to return. This is the second product I buy from Best Buy that is defective. I’ve only ever made 2 purchases … so this is telling. The other was a refrigerator I bought. Exactly a year later it broke. It spoiled $150 worth of food— which I later learned I could’ve been reimbursed for. No one in customer service let me know that. The guy who tried to install the printer told me. I’m very disappointed with Best Buy and the products they sell.

    Wanted to love it especially with the offer of 2 years of ink included....but had to return it. The printer kept disconnecting from the Wifi network and showing a printer overload error that the files we were trying to print were too large (which they weren't). It's also slow.
