Summary: To start printing takes about two-three minutes of constant "donk-donk-donk". No quite sure what it is doing other than maybe wasting ink in some cleaning effort.
Summary: I am so angry at this printer I can't see straight. I purchased it as a replacement for the MP980 which was the worst ink waster ever. This one was supposed to be better.
Summary: I should have listened. Scanner is merely adequate. Photos scanned do not have near the quality of my previous Kodak printer and Epson standalone scanner.
