Since you brought it back up, I'll provide an update.
1) Annoying thing about the printer - it always goes 'offline' despite the fact that I can log into it online and it says it is online. So we have to turn it all the way off and back on whenever we want to print (unless we've printed in the past... 15 min? I have a thread that says it needs a dedicated IP so it doesn't get 'knocked off' the network but I haven't taken the time to configure it yet. Seems like it should be able to handle basic DHCP.
2) I've had the printer for over a month and I'm still on the initial ink that came with it and we've printed a fair amount. They sent me the next pack of ink but I haven't had to use it yet. So I can't really review that part yet.
