Overall rating 3.7 / 5
For a modest price range, the Expression Home XP-2100 is doing quite well, it is certainly not at all fast but offers high print quality . It is good value for money and does not take up much space.
In itself, it is a good support printer if you have a small budget and you print occasionally, otherwise prefer a more expensive but more efficient printer ( EPSON ECOTANK ET-2750 , Brother DCP-J572DW for example )
