This product should be recalled by the manufacturer
(Global Review)
This is a follow-up to the review that I left in Oct 20. A service guy was called after talking to tech support. The unit was still under warranty at that time so it was a free service call. The service guy came out and he was very nice but didn't have any knowledge of this particular machine. I had to show him how to remove the developer which was funny. He replaced the toner and the machine didn't work he then ordered a new developer and in a few days returned to put that in. The machine now worked. Hurray for now but not for long. In about a month the black cartridge said it needed to be ordered but the machine had only printed 883 prints total from new. The black cartridge had plenty of toner left in it. The next day I called tech support as I knew the same thing that happened with the yellow was happening with the black. The unit was now 2 days out of warranty. Tech support after a lot of conversation finally agreed to send me a new black cartridge but would not send a developer which I was sure it needed. The next day the machine turned on and said the the black toner cartridge was empty but I had not printed anything. My cyan and magenta cartridges still say that they are 70% full and the yellow was still 100% since it was replaced in oct. A few days later I got the replacement black cartridge and put it in. The machine said that the new oem cartridge that was sent to me needed to be replaced. I am sure that the same thing happened with this black developer as what happened with the yellow. It plugged or the connection between the two plugged and told the machine that it was empty. I called tech support and this time they would only send a technician at my cost which was unacceptable or I could take the heavy machine to a local service center at my cost which is also unacceptable. This machine has an ongoing problem and it needs to be repaired by the manufacturer actually it should be recalled if the company wants to still sell to corporations. This is very very very poor customer service. The machine is probably going in the trash. The cost per sheet in this machine has been $1.69 which I frankly cannot believe. This is unbelievable. Would you buy one??? Would you be happy with the durability of this??
