Xerox Phaser 3020BI

Advantages: Ultra-compact - takes up very little space. Prints quickly and with good quality. Not noisy. Refueling easily and inexpensively. Has the ability to print wirelessly, that is, you can put it wherever it is convenient, and not next to the computer. Plus, you can print documents directly from your phone / tablet.

Disadvantages: In general, no.

Comment: I already have 5 years old Xerox 3120 - works flawlessly. This one bought for parents, was surprised at the compactness.

Advantages: Everything is fine, prints quickly, wi-fi works gorgeous - in the corner of the room farthest from the modem.

Comment: The cartridge is easy and cheap to refuel by specially trained people. The result is a very economical printing.

Advantages: + Air Print + WiFi + Good quality + Fast printing (well, for its category) + A child can set up: everything is done elementary, without dancing with a tambourine + Cartridge resource 1500 (supposedly, in fact I don't know)

Disadvantages: -Expensive original cartridges -The price of the printer has skyrocketed

Comment: It is necessary to flash 1 time. Then refueling without problems. Or buy a non-original compatible cartridge (1000 versus 3000 for the original). This is information from the organization that is engaged in refueling / flashing printers, which I called before buying to find out all the nuances about this model.

Advantages: - the size; - speed of work; - without phantom waking up (will not wake up at night); - quick setup even without the included disk (if there is no CD-rom, then the file with the software and driver can be easily downloaded from the official website).

Disadvantages: multistep in setting up wireless printing, but this is not a disadvantage of the printer, but the cost of technology. I set up WiFi printing on ASUS U38N with Win10 x64 on board and cloud printing on two Samsung devices: Galaxy Note 3 SM-N9005 with modified firmware (Android 6.0.1) and Galaxy Tab S3 SM-T820 with official firmware (Android 8.0) ... The first setup on Win10 is done via the supplied USB cable, which can then be disconnected and removed (of course, if you chose to print via WiFi).

Comment: For those who failed.We take the driver for Windows here (we select our version of Windows in advance): https://www.support.xerox.com/support/phaser-3020/downloads/ruru.html Download, run, and STUPID READ AND UNDERSTAND in everything that we need they write before pressing the buttons, there is nothing academically complicated there. For portable devices, I set up cloud printing via Google Cloud Print. To do this, you need a Google account, head on shoulders and arms from them: 1) print a configuration report, from which you need to find out the printer's IP address. How to do this is written here: http://www.xerox.ru/upload/iblock/388/phaser_3020_ug_ru_1_.pdf (p. 14, below). The IP address will be written in the Network Setup - TCP / IP Settings section, the IP Address line. We enter this address in the browser and press Enter. 2) at the top of the page that opens Press "Login" and enter the ID admin, password 1111. We enter and then "Properties" and on the left Google Cloud Print. 3) change the name of the printer (this is optional), if changed, then do not forget to click "Apply" at the top right. 4) click "Register" below. If a window pops up, then click "Finish printer registration" in it, if the window does not appear, then click on the appeared blue link goo.gl/printer/*** and the same thing - complete the registration. 5) go to the print settings of your mobile device. On Samsung, this is Connections - Other Settings - Print. Other devices may be different, but also nothing complicated, look. In the print settings, click "Add Service" and select "Cloud Print" from Google LLC. Install. 6) We go to the installed service, see our printer and rejoice. Trying to print something (I printed PDF through the Office Suite, everything went fine, except that the first print from Note 3 via the mobile Internet printed an error, but the second and subsequent times everything was fine). How to set up wireless printing (Air Print) on Apple and Mac is written in the same printer manual, the link to which I gave, page 36.

Prints well, fast. It's easy to set up. I am typing from an iPhone via wifi.

Advantages: Yes, in general, everything is as expected

Disadvantages: Couldn't configure WiFi

Comment: Everything seems to be fine, but I bought it because of WiFi. It didn't work

Advantages: Nice, modern, inexpensive.

Disadvantages: The paper is more electrified than the old HP.

Comment:

Advantages: I think this printer is the best in its class in terms of price / quality ratio. Waffle pick-up - without dancing with a tambourine. The low wafer signal response is excellent. Prints even if there is only one line from the wafer. When warming up and printing, it gives little noise, there are no foreign odors. Compact. I climbed into a square cell of the Ikeevsky rack. This made me very happy (although I had chosen this in advance). It's just a catch about compactness. There are no backlashes, the printer itself is strong and does not creak. The cartridge can be removed quickly and without problems. It is also inserted. Firewood and software got up on both poppy and Windows. There are no problems with printing via AirPrint to a poppy and just WiFi from Windows. Checked.

Disadvantages: 1. Kick-ass expensive cartridges 2. Long warm-up (if in a hurry, this is not for you). 10-11 seconds to warm up and 5 to print. I recommend using sleep mode for quick printing without warming up. 3. It is sometimes difficult to find this printer on sale at an affordable price.

Comment: Register your printer on the office site and take part in the loyalty program, this will give you a discount on replacing a branded cartridge. If you buy a cartridge through the office site (when contacting support), then the price for it seems to be lower than just buying in a store. Let's check :) Well, the internet is full of methods on how to refill such cartridges with minimal investment.

Advantages: Works wirelessly, compact, gloss free

Disadvantages: I used to lose the network, but this was due to a problem in the router

Comment: I bought this printer for my home to print various documents. You can print from any device - iPhone, iPad or iMac. While there was an old router, there were problems with printing, files did not always get to the active printer, sometimes copies of the device multiplied. But after updating the routers, everything changed. No more problems with printing. The printer is separate from all equipment, there is no need to connect wires. Configured through Mac OS in 7-10 minutes. The print quality is quite satisfactory. I am very pleased with the purchase.

Advantages: Small, comfortable, especially compared to the jet. Quality printing.

Disadvantages: A dedicated button to resume printing would be nice. Now, for example, if the paper in the tray has run out, then to resume printing you have to open and close the front cover - it's inconvenient!

Comment: For me, like other commentators, the out-of-the-box printer stably lost its connection to wifi, I had to reconfigure it every day with a cord connection, etc. This problem can be solved by downloading the latest firmware from the official site and rolling it over the air. Recommend.
