Bought one of these a few months ago. First, noted there is no manual with it, just a one-page graphic to show how to hook it up. Then, it didn’t work. After some online research, I found out that the black ink cartridge sent with it was the wrong one. The new one cost more than the cost of the printer. It works OK now, but if you have high quantity printing, the ink will run out quickly.
For any type printer I always set defaults to black-only and draft or low-res mode. This is good for most printing or you can override when you do a print job. Or temporarily change the default if doing a lot of high-res and/or color print jobs.
I’ve had 2 of these 4600 models - they are not worth it! Both of them malfunctioned within a week of the expiration of the warranty! The on-line help does NOT work to fix it, but for about $100 you can send it to them for repair (!)
