Like the entire 450 series, this one is no different.
Never seen a printer like this. Every time I go to print, I have to go walk across the room to touch the touch screen and wake it up. It doesn't matter setting the sleep times to two hours, if it sleeps a print job refuses to wake it up. Mac OS, PC, iOS devices. Same on all of them.
Printer keeps wanting me to select the tray and paper type. The current software shows a tray 1 and a tray 2. There is only ONE tray on this. There is a manual feed above it that you have to open up to feed. The printer is actually seeing itself and having two auto trays. I know there's a model that has this, so it seems to me they have the wrong firmware in this. I have to go and tell it what tray and paper type to print, right along with waking it up, every time I print if it's gone to sleep. INSANE.
I've tried all the things I can find online to fix the ridiculous sleep thing. There is nothing that solves it, not setting Static IP, not reinstalling the software, not resetting the entire printer.
The whole FOUR SCREENS of menus is completely ridiculous. Talk about overkill complication.
I have a TR8600 Canon inkjet sitting right next to this, and it has none of these issues, it does what I tell it to when I tell it to. We have two Canon D570 laster printers in the family, and they have NONE of these issues.
What's with the archaic flip-phone texting-type menu for entering your Wifi info too? Wow. Please hire some people who know how to create a menu. Really, this kind of menu for setting up your Wifi is literally from the late 90's!!
Again, do not buy this. The one I have has 200 pages on it, hardly anything for a supposed small-office class printer. I'm gonna try to get rid of it really cheap or give it away to someone who doesn't care if they have to get up and cross the room to start a print job, or have it right next to them where it doesn't matter.
The printer is completely unacceptable trash to even sell to the public.
