Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)was interested in 7675 model that has 4 star rating over several reviews. Its scanner is 600x1200 dpi so I decided to review the 9575 with better scan capabilities and looks much more elegant that 7675. I read the two reviews on Amazon, both had 2 star ratings. Both are very well written, to the point, so I was afraid to pick this model up. However, I decided to give it a try anyway.
I have tried to address some of the points raised in the other two 2 Star reviews, hope it will help them also, or, they may be correct in their individual circumstances.
The setup was a breeze - the CD accompanying the printer asks for 30 minutes set up time, I got done somewhat short of 30 mins, most of the time going into doing external stuff ("now get paper, load it in tray" etc). Once the setup was complete, all its features worked just fine. No customer support, no rollback of software of conflicts of any kind.
Here are some notes that may help the buyers or those considering to buy-
* On opening the box, in big letters, there is a sign - insert CD before you connect the printer. Follow the simple instructions by the book. You may find the setup as easy as I did.
* I connected the machine wireless hooking up my 2 desktops and 1 laptop. All work fine.
* The earlier 2 star reviews found the printer flimsy. I found it as well constructed as any other printer - give or take a shade here and there. The perception of "Flimsy" could arise from the scanner cover, once lifted, well, it appears "Flimsy" as the hinges swivel and appear loose.
In checking with one of the brick and mortar stores, their response was that it is designed that way so that a BOOK can be photocopied. Rigid hinges make it difficult to position a book.
* Print quality is good, ink capacity is same as 7675 model (approx 500 pages), I am ok with all this. PCMag has some reviews on both and I agree with their assessment -both have similar 3star or 4star rating.
* As far as software conflicts reported earlier go, my machines are loaded- from productivity suites to graphics to even games. No software issues arose. This is my experience, and is not meant to refute what the other two reported.
Overall, a very satisfying machine for such a low price. I am happy with it.
