After several years of use, I think it's time to write a review for this tool.

I got frustrated one day with an HP printer that I had for less than two years, and I had just replaced the ink cartridges a month before. It simply stopped printing. And before that, I had issues with another printer.

So, I told myself, enough is enough, I'll get something of higher quality and reliable laser printing technology.

I had heard about Kyocera before, but I didn't pay much attention. And I saw a few reviews here and there, so I was considering it.

In the end, I bought it and never looked back.

It is of excellent quality and reliability.

For example, one day it was struggling to print. It barely managed to print one page. I thought it was done for. But then I decided to open it at a specific point to see if a page was jammed. There were two (yes, two!) pages stuck, and the printer managed to print one before completely stopping! The error was entirely my fault, of course, 100% (I had put a heavily wrinkled page in the tray without paying much attention), and I simply didn't do it again!

Since then, I have printed thousands of pages (both single-sided and double-sided).

I have printed through the network (LAN) and via USB (which I currently use).

I don't buy its own ink, but rather a non-genuine one from a store (quite cheap), and it has produced many prints for me.

In short, if I were to buy again, I would choose the same printer or another one from the same company.

If someone asked me, I would recommend Kyocera.

Very sturdy and high-quality construction. Bulky, heavy, relatively noisy only when printing, but we are talking about a "tool" of a professional printer category, without fancy lights and designs. Top-quality printing and one of the few models in this category that can print double-sided. However, like all monochrome lasers, it is not suitable for photos. It is mainly designed as a network printer and setup is done through the web, so some basic IT knowledge is required. Connected via USB to the computer for local use and with Ethernet to the DSL router, and everyone has easy access if set up correctly. Another advantage compared to competitive models is that it has compatible toners at very affordable prices. Genuine ones are very expensive and skyrocket the usage cost. When I bought it for €105 in 2020, it was the best value for money I could find for (demanding) home use, and I recommend it for someone looking for something more advanced and prioritizes quality over design. However, with the current price of around €200, it is only suitable for offices/companies.
