Phaser 3330/DNI

Nice product. A little hard to set up but customer service was very helpful and efficient.

The only negative is the delay printing the first page. There some sleep settings that did help some.

I like this update to a laser printer I used to use. Been a Phaser fan for a long time and see that this one is at end-of-cycle. That resulted in a great price! Now if I can just get it to quit printing a cover page all the time...

I tried very hard to like this printer. I'm a graphic designer specializing in print and I've used and installed many printers in my career; I'm not technically inept! But this printer had me stumped so many times, I'm ready to give up on it and recreate the printer scene from The Office. At first it wasn't so bad; it seemed to print solid black graphics and text well and very quickly. The control panel on the printer is a bit archaic. The printer constantly prints 'configuration pages' that list the specs, and printer job pages for each thing you send. You can shut them off but you have to go through a lot of settings. I use the bypass tray a lot, and it prompts you to confirm paper size, paper type, and paper color every time you send something to print, but it does save the previous settings. I noticed the print never quite lined up properly on paper, and though it did bother me, I brushed it off as it hadn't been too important. As far as I can tell, there are no self-cleaning programs on the printer either. One day my house lost power while I had the printer in sleep mode, on a surge protector, and I was plagued by a DHCP server error and couldn't print a thing. I had to finally venture into the "Centreware Internet Services" page in the hopes that I can restore it to factory settings, where it immediately prompted me for a password. What password?? I searched the manual and it says '1111' is default, so I used that.. and didn't work. I googled and found on a forum to use the printer serial number.. I used that, and it also didn't work. I couldn't do anything without this mystery password. Finally I called customer service and she was very helpful after going through the usual prompts to make sure I was doing the basics correctly. Apparently I locked myself out after too many attempts (which it didn't tell me) so she guided me through a reset on the printer control panel and it finally reset and it was all good for another little while. I'm currently trying to use the printer on invitations. Though the Phaser has a decent amount of installed paper sizes, it doesn't have 5x7". It does claim you can add custom sizes but again, this is way more difficult than it needs to be. The printer bypass tray and the printer window needs to have the same paper size, type, and color, otherwise it won't print. No matter what I did to align the print properly, it was never correct. I finally manually corrected the graphics on the page with InDesign and it finally worked! On the 22nd test print! But.. when I went to print it on a 5x7" that had been printed on with color already, it went completely bananas and shifted everything up on the paper. It did this TWICE, it wasn't a fluke. Whyyyy??? I suppose my downfall was assuming this printer would fit my needs but I think it would be better just being used as an office printer. I'm so frustrated, and I bought this in April and its way past the return window. EDIT: 8/22, I still hate this printer with the passion of a thousand suns that are fueled by all of the paper I waste on this thing

It's my own fault I didn't research more thoroughly, but I didn't realize until after I'd received it that there is no glass plate to scan or copy from anything other than standard copy paper which can be fed through the machine. This means I can't copy from books, I cannot copy or scan business cards, identification, etc. Bummer! Also, the software is extremely irritating. Settings don't stay put. The copier attempts to print a "cover sheet" for every "job" wasting a lot of paper. Each time I print, I have to scroll down to select a different title for the same printer, otherwise it prints this cover sheet - but there is no way to select that title as a default. Ggrrrr. If all you want to do is send print jobs for lots of black & white pages, it does that job very well, and it will print two-sided, if you ask it nicely.

Best feature is the automatic setup to your wireless router with the PC program supplied.

Great printer, print 48000 pages so far with the refill kit and did not have any problem. Compatible 106R03622 Toner refill kit with reset Chip for Xerox Phaser 3330, WorkCentre 3335, 3345 (8.5k) printer cartridge

Like all my Xerox laser printers, this one is a bit on the unreliable side of the spectrum, but unlike the other Xerox printers I own, this one has a whole set of different problems. First off when I received it, the drum cartridge (not the toner cartridge), as expected, had been pre-installed, but it wasn't installed properly and had a noise until properly seated. There was no instruction easily available to find out how to do this. Also, the printer randomly disconnects from the network and has to be restarted. It also cannot wake itself up for print jobs without first hitting some buttons on the actual printer to wake it up. Please see the 2 attached photos. This printer requires extra parts that have to be replaced every once in a while including transfer rollers, feed rollers, and drum cartridges. These 3 items have a finite life as you can see by the "life remaining" meter in the photo.

works like a charm

The printer makes nice copy but the features are virtually unintelligible. The "manual" is over -complicated and difficult to read. Overall, the machine is NOT Mac-friendly although it claims to be compatible. For example, it insists on printing what Xerox calls a "Banner Page" at the start of each job that is utterly useless and nobody in my office wants. I have called outside tech support to try and get that annoying "feature" turned off. Xerox needs to stop using foreigners to write it's manuals and/or program features into it's printers.

Machine consumables are cheap, and the printing quality is fine, but the wireless printing connection is very weak, and it is easy to disconnect, just in the position of my original printer.
