Older comments:

Works out of the box with various PCL3 drivers.

Under Linux this printer does up to 600x600dpi in colour with CRET. To obtain this use the Gimp-Print driver (4.1.99) in 600x600 dpi, or the cdj880 or cdj970 drivers with RET turned on and presentation quality.

Consumables/Refills: One cartridge for black, another for CMY
