Thank you for the detailed warning. I was considering purchasing the same unit on or near the upcoming Christmas holiday. I'll heed your warning and stay away. Epson printers are now looking much better than before. Again, thanks.
I was very sad to post this review. I previously worked in an office for several years that had an enterprise/business grade HP color printer (like this one is supposed to be) but it was a reliable workhorse. Which is why I was was willing to spend the money....For what it's worth, out of expediency, I picked up a Brother black and white MFC-L2717DW off the shelf at Costco and it's been performing like a little champ at 25% the cost which includes a genuine Brother 9,000 page extra capacity replacement toner cartridge bought on Amazon.
@@Tipjar333 thx! I had a brother years ago and I agree, great machine and never gave me any issues. I had a business HP MFP that I had for years and worked perfect, but I retired and no need for the big machine. I still do some stuff that needs a MFP, and I was using a small HP MFP that really sucks. I was looking to upgrade and was looking at this one you reviewed. I think the high end HP are great but the consumer grade stuff is junk from my experience. Brother it will be. I’ll come full circle
First of all, thank you for your warning. However, so far, I have been lucky to have received a printer that apparently was subject to rigorous quality assurance procedures and is functioning correctly. More updates later when I continue to test this machine.

It's not all the printers it's a few you were given a defective unit
