Drivers are atrocious!, August 10, 2009

The printed output is fine. The drivers are horrible.

I hate background utilities that must standby and occupy resources in order for the equipment to function. I have never had an Epson operate this way.

If the print manager is removed from the system tray (not run at start-up), you are sunk.
The drivers and utilities must be uninstalled then manually removed from the XP registry.
If the preceding removals are not accomplished, Windows XP may hang during a reboot.
Also, the USB port to which the printer is attached will report a malfunction.

Initially, I thought it was the communications board. So, I disassembled the unit for a look.
Everything seemed well. However, as an experienced technician, I can declare the electronics assembly a fairly haphazard design. I insulated and grounded the comm. board properly.

All in all, typical Xerox junk made in China.

About six months ago I bought this printer to use as a non-networked printer hooked up to my Dell Latitude laptop running Windows 7. I had no trouble hooking it up and it has run flawlessly ever since when printing 8.5 X 11 letterhead. Unfortunately, the printer does not work well with envelopes as it consistently wrinkles the envelopes during the printing process and heat seals the gum on the flap. I can usually separate the flap and re-seal it once the letter is folded and inserted in the envelope, and with a little effort I can straighten out the wrinkles. But really.... What is the utility of a laser printer that mauls envelopes?

If the envelopes were not a problem I would rate this printer with 5 stars; as is, I can only give it three stars because the envelope treatment rates only one star. It's very frustrating. Fortunately for me I am not a high volume user and some of my print jobs to not require envelopes, so I can fiddle around with this when necessary. I...Read more

Buyer Beware! Horrible Drivers and No Forward Compatibility, November 3, 2010

Xerox customer support is non-existent. If you can talk with technical support during the warranty period, you will get "follow the direction on the web site". After warranty expires, Xerox requires a $25 payment to talk with customer service. Xerox also doesn't provide working drivers for older printer models on new operating systems such as Windows 7. Save yourself some time and money and buy from a company that understands the meaning of "customer" and "technical support".
