Evaluate Ease of Use

The best way to evaluate a printer’s ease of use is to use it in a real world environment over an extended period of time. But even without that opportunity, the following questions can help uncover a printer’s true start-up and day-to-day Ease of Use potential:

Can you easily reach all areas of a printer?

Is it easy to check the consumable status before committing to a large or important print job?

Also, consider what tools are provided to help manage multiple printers in a network.

How easy is it to learn to use and manage? Does it offer easy control both over the network and from its front panel?
