Dell 966 All in One Color Printer Scanner Fax Copier
Since my first purchase of the initial IBM PC in 1981 I have owned dozens of personal computers and peripherals. In all that time I have never been more dissatisfied with a product than I have been with the Dell Photo 966. When it's working properly (which is seldom) it's main purpose in life seems to be marketing Dell ink cartridges. It is essentially impossible to print anything without at least two annoying popups providing the reminder to purchase ink from Dell. However, the true issue lies in basic product quality. The thing often simply refuses to work. It displays a variety of error messages sending the user on no end of wild goose chases to clear imaginary jams and "carriage stalls". In an average day I unplug and reboot the printer an average of five or six times. Tomorrow I'm going out to buy a new printer, and you can be sure it won't be a Dell.

I printed a photo and after a few minutes a dull, lined, faded and wet paper fell out of the printer that looked like the photo I wanted. I thought, "Ok, it's not a photo printer. I can accept that." After all, any computer in the house can print to it. Then, after about a week, I tried to print something and the progress bar went up to 5% and stopped. I tried again and again. Then re-installed the drivers, which worked! For another week. I did it again. Same results. Then I called support. They sent a replacement. Same thing. As it turns out there are a lot of people with the same problem. The support staff don't seem to have any answers and there doesn't appear to be any resolution online. So, no more...Read more

Nothing but problems. I have been on the phone to Dell several times for lengthy tech support issues. Sometimes hours. Sometimes days, because the guy couldn't figure it out and I had to get another guy.
Do not waste your money on this cheap piece of s...
Due to the slick plastic bottom it does not even function well as a door stop. I am going to try boat-anchor next week.
