This is a great device. At this price, you can't lose.

I agree you network share everything, printer, scanner, fax, & even the media reader.

3rd party ink (with the chip) works great in this printer.

A complete set of ink for around $27 shipped.

This printer doesn't have the bloated driver footprint like an HP will.

Canon 800 series printers are the best in the market. For $100, it can't be wrong. By the way, 870 is a newer model and suppose replace the 860. So, if you don't care about the old model, this one is fine and provide sufficient features for general purposes.
