If you need a printer, this is excellent. I am retired and don’t print anymore. This printer is a printer/scanner/copier. It prints in color and black and white. I did not want to print in color anymore and in order to use it, you need to buy a COLOR ink cartridge and I don’t want to anymore. Don’t need to anymore. So, if you are interested, to use it, you must have to buy a color ink cartridge to be able to use it, even if you have a black and whi cartridge in it, which it does have one in there.
