The model is also able to provide a high level of efficiency. It produces high quality fines lines with immense levels of sharpness. This is a very important feature in any printing machine.

The machine is able to take in 3,150 sheets of paper in its input tray. This is a very significant number, especially in a home office machine and may be an added plus depending on your level of volume of output. However, the output tray can only hold 1,500 sheets of paper. This is not as significant of number and may drawback certain consumers.

A convenient 1 year warranty is included in this specific model. This is a nice feature as it allows you, the consumer to worry less about simple errors that may randomly occur. These simple errors often occur while you are adjusting to the new machine and no longer have to worry about being left with a broken machine.
