Is it worth it over a cheaper inkjet?

For frequent black-and-white documents, yes. Laser toner costs less per page than ink, and duplex plus the ADF add office features inkjets at this level often lack.

Can it print in color?

No. It is a monochrome laser printer and prints only black.

Does it print double-sided automatically?

Yes. Automatic duplex printing is built in, so you do not flip pages by hand.

What comes in the box?

The printer, a starter toner cartridge (about 700 pages), a drum unit (about 12,000 pages), power cord, telephone cord, setup guide and installation CD.

Can I print from a phone?

Yes. It supports AirPrint and Wi-Fi Direct, so iOS and Android devices can print without a router.

How much paper does it hold?

The adjustable tray holds 250 sheets of letter or legal paper, and the ADF holds 50 sheets for copying, scanning and faxing.
