Decent printer for the price. A little tricky to set up the wireless, but once it is set up everything works as described.

I bought this printer, to replace the same model. Being refurbished, it is a little louder and clunkier than my old one; but this one works! Some gears came misaligned in my old printer, and it quit working. Haven't had any real issues with this one. I gave it 4 stars, because there are some things that are a little "looser" than my other printer. I had to be very careful in aligning the CD print tray. Once I got it right, it did print. It is also extremely noisy. That had me concerned, but it's been working for a few weeks now. I don't print on it every day though.

Pretty good printer but WiFi printing can be a little slow, there is a noticeable dusting of toner on each page, and every single picture comes out warm

Printer works great, wifi reception doesn't seem to be the best it seems to have issues communicating with my hp laptop, so it prints when it wants to it feels like. set up wasn't as quick as I would have liked. Going to buy a cable for it because wireless is unreliable. Oh and it comes with 2 black ink cartridges, no color printing for you out of the box. But it will work with only one cartridge inserted.

This printer has worked well.  The ink cartridges seem a little pricey.

When trying to get this printer installed.  You will need a flashlight to read the screen.  Did not locate a way to change the font. But the most frustrating part was trying to get the Wifi connected, which is the main reason I purchased it for.  Finally after 3 hours of trying, I decided to check You Tube, (it has everything), I was able to finally print from my laptop, and my phone.. Yipee!!!  Printer is a little noisy, but there is a noise reduction setting.  But who cares about a little noise when pritning..  You will have to manually turn off the printer, but who does not need a little excercise.  Decent size, and easy to install the print cartridges.  Great Value for the price.  The only negative is that I cannot print from my Kindle Fire..

Great printer. Great price. A little thirsty for ink, but overall it's a great value.

Satisfied with this printer! It took me around 13h to build it. Was fun but a little bit frustrating for some reason, like the really bad instructions (some of the screw required in some steps were the wrong one) and rods were hard to fit into their respective holes. Ive printed 15 things now and the quality is very good for the price.

Good Printer for the Price.
It took me about 6 hours to put it together but about another 10 hours to calibrate it. Once i realized that the bed had a dip in the middle (after buying a proximity sensor and modifying new firmware to make it work) I was able to calibrate it by removing the proximity sensor and enabling mesh leveling in the firmware. Before I had modified the firmware I had emailed HICTOP on Thursday to get a copy of the original firmware in case I messed it up, on Saturday I had not received an email so I went ahead and did the firmware anyway. I did receive an email monday morning with the firmware, but have not installed it.
I have one linear bearing that is making a slight grinding noise even after lubricating, but the bed still seems to move ok.
The stepper motors and driver chips get pretty hot even after only a small print, so I will look into the current adjustment and/or add heatsinks. They may be designed to get hot and be ok.
Putting glass on the bed will help with leveling if you are not comfortable messing with firmware, so don't let that stop you from buying this printer, it is definitely worth the price!

Overall, not a bad printer especially given the price.  Have had it a couple weeks, and no problems yet.  Positives:  print quality acceptable, no jamming yet.  Negatives:  big, heavy and noisy

Overall the printer is a very solid value for the price when compared to other products. I received mine yesterday, it took me a bit to get setup and working as I had to do a manual calibration which was a bit redundant, but I managed to get it done with the included directions without issue. There was also a issue with getting the filament to load into the extruder, I found if I go into the menu and tell it to load a few times in a row eventually it comes through, I think it just needs more time to heat and flow throw it than 1 try. Maybe my extruder is slightly clogged up as well, haven't had a chance to try and clean it to check.

Once it was setup I was able to print a popular elephant model off of thingiverse without any issues, the print quality is very good. Those who are having issues with their printing on here most likely just aren't aware of all of the things you need to do for 3d printing, it is still very much a tinkering hobby at this point. While this printer does a ok job at trying to make a plug in play simple printer, there is still going to be manual work involved to get things working properly, just the nature of the type of product it is.

Overall I'm very satisfied for the cost, especially with this being a dual extruder. There are some software features that I'd like to see on their custom application for slicing and sending the print job, status bars for things like slicing and uploading would be very helpful. For those wanting to use open source applications, there is nothing stopping you from using other programs for slicing and creating your job then importing them into the xyz software, just google, there are guides for it.

Takes a little tinkering to try to figure everything out ,but very easy to set up...had to tweak a few things ,but a very good printer for the price. Don't need a fax line ,so having the print/scanning options for me are just great.

Very nice printer that works as advertised.  I would be happier with separate ink cartridges for each color, but for the price, this is good enough.

For a $30 printer I suppose it does well. Every time I print I hold my breath bc it sounds like it's going to snap into. Overall for the money, its a good printer

works well.  Typically starts printing in about 10 seconds after print request.

Works fine but the software installion can be annoying. Once it is set up printing is easy enough though. My one complaint is that is seems to eat ink even when it is not being used.

Good for its price, not the most advanced printer. Annoyingly have to print one page at a time for double sided and to not get jammed. Look for another printer with cheaper ink, one regular sized black ink cost $27-35. A set of four around $80
