Product Reviews
Phaser 6500 3 5 5 5
Very Frustrating Product I have had this machine for about 9 months. No matter what I do the magenta is out of register. If I use the auto-register feature nothing changes and if I manually set it is OK for a day or two then reverts to being out again. Also prints random yellow lines out of the intended image area; no idea how to fix that. Have only used Xerox brand cartridges so that's not it. The driver keeps crashing and I have to restart the print spooler every few minures and the paper output can only handle two pages than jams because the paper (standard 20 pound# curls and blocks the exit #too much heat?) What a disapointing machine and waste of money. I have had many printers and have never experienced issues even close to this with any other manufacturer's product. Will probably end up in the recycle pile once the cartridges have run out. 07 March 2012
great printer I have had excellent results with this printer. The ink dries smooth and clearly. It prints fast and native in postscript so InDesign natives print 1000x faster than on my last printer. The only issue I have had is with a light band printing on the right hand side of the page. 19 October 2011
Easy Mac setup I replaced my old Mac Laserwriter II after 10 years of use. Plugged the color printer into my Time Capsule, loaded the driver, and it works beautifully. 30 August 2011
Worth the money So far very reliable. Wakes up fast enough from hibernate mode and the printing quality is good enough for daily use. Pretty easy to setup in network aswell. 30 August 2011
Very annoying Impossible to get the printer to collate when printing multiple copies. Very annoying indeed. Print 3 copies and you 3 copies of page 1, then 3 of page 2, etc. Great printer if you're into manual labour. 04 July 2011
