Occasionally you will run out of ink without having a back up so maybe you switch out with another printer until you can purchase more. This printer is programmed to not allow switching of ink cartridges in order to ensure they are making more money and there is no way to override it without subscribing to an additional warranty plan. Spent 1 hour on the phone with a customer service representative to find this out. I would rather it print a faded print out than completely stop printing. Had Canon printers for years and they were amazing. Highly recommend the canon printer/scanners over these.
I was advised by the vendor that Xerox sold the toner cartridges for this printer at a very reasonable price to avoid people using look alike cartridges.
Well a full set of toner cartridges costs DOUBLE the price of the printer, and they have put chips on the cartridges to stop anyone else supplying cartridges.
Now the REAL KILLER I go to print a full colour photo and get error memory full message. Go online and nope this printer can't actually print photos!!! It's too late to return this piece of garbage and buy something descent, I am more angry than I have been in years

I ordered one and after printing maybe 30 sheets the black ink was gone. I ordered a new on and it lasted for maybe 20 sheets before it started saying it was low. I ordered another one and it never stopped saying ink was low and would not print. I reached out to Zerox and they sent a new printer and i sending back the other one. I hooked up the new printer , it printed the test page and the spec page and said black ink was low!! BRAND NEW and 3 sheets printed. Do Not Buy this printer!

Once the printer is awake and has printed 1 page it's a work horse. Just sometimes up to 5 minutes for it to warm up and print the first page. So if you're in a rush, don't count on this being your saving grace.
The C230 worked well for quite a few months but updates in Apple operating software made everything change for the worse. Now, the printer takes FOREVER to print and will NOT print from my iPads as it used to. Xerox is aware of this problem and simply recommends I upgrade to a better printer. NOT the response I felt was responsible so I just bought a Canon printer and am hoping I get better results.
