What reviewers say

Reviewers of the 3201dw, the US name for this printer, agree it is compact and quick, with crisp text and vivid colour documents, though photos lack shadow detail. Both criticise the light starter toner and costly cartridges; Digital Trends found the button-driven menus slow and awkward.
