Perfect...for Mac too!!
First of all I am student and am constantly printing off all sorts of stuff for school. I had a color HP inkjet all-in-one that worked well except for the fact that ink printers smear and the replacement ink is so expensive. I stumbled upon this printer and found a way good deal so I bought it. When it arrived I hooked it up to my computer (yes I have a Mac) and at first had a bit of trouble installing the driver. I finally figured out that the easiest way was to download the driver from the Oki website.
After that I starting printing like an office supply nerd in Kinkos! It does everything that I need it to. It prints pictures with decent resolution. It prints text wonderfully. It is silent when not in use and quiet when it is warming up/cooling down. This printer is wicked fast (as compared to inkjet) and the start up time is excellent as well. The toner capacity (thus far) is great. I have printed 800-1000 pages and we're still plugging away (with the toner that came with the printer!) I'm already saving money on ink/toner. It prints many different sizes/styles of paper (including envelope and card stock)
Now for the criticisms of the printer. It does not duplex (both sides) automatically. I don't have a lot of extra time to manually duplex so I end up using double the paper I would have if auto-duplex was an option. Another major criticism that I have is that it does not do a great job with labels. I bought some mailing labels for laser printers and the toner seems to wipe off the labels after they're printed. Who knows I may have a setting wrong but this seems weird.
Other than that this printer is perfect for what I need to do.More detail ...
