Lacking some features that other printers in the same class have as standard
I am on the fence about this printer. Having not used a Xerox machine in a long time, I was looking forward to trying it out, but I don't think I can recommend it. There are several good things, but also some things that leave me scratching my head.
The print quality and speed are top notch. I have no issues there, and I had no issues with connectivity either, as one person mentioned having. Setup is a lot easier with many other printers, this having a fairly old school interface, but it's nothing out of the ordinary.
The form factor and size are excellent, and I like the fact that the prints are delivered inside the footprint of the machine.
This is clearly a small business oriented printer, being monochrome and laser (businesses really only need black and white, and want to print as cheaply and reliably as possible, of course). But businesses also often have invoices or other printing jobs that require double sided printing. And this model DOES 2-sided prints, but not auto 2-sided printing. You have to flip the page, which would make me not buy it for my business right out of the gate. For the segment of people I believe this is aimed at, this is an odd choice.
Same goes for scanning and copying. Only single sided. Scanning, this makes sense. But both printing and copying should be auto double sided, based on what I believe is the segment of customers being aimed at with this product.
Printers by other manufacturers in this same class and price range have these features, and competitively priced toner. If Xerox wants to compete at this level of the market, I would recommend adding these features in future iterations of this class.

Not the friendliest user interface, but produces solid prints even on cheap paper.
The B205 has most of the features I look for in a printer to use at home like an automatic document feeder for scanning, manual feed for one off prints from seldom used media, the ability produce PC-less copies, duplex printing, email and Google Cloud printing. These are among the things I usually use the most and all are supported. It doesn't bother me at all because I never fax, but fax is NOT supported on this model just in case someone out there is assuming it is as traditionally fax was always included in something referred to as a multi-function printer.
The machine itself is fairly light for a laser, I've definitely lugged around much heftier laser printers of similar size around in the past. The design is overall pretty utilitarian and not really exciting to me. Construction feels okay, neither the most sturdy looking/feeling printer I've come across nor the cheapest. I feel like the scanner lid is not going to be the most durable part of it but as long as it isn't handled roughly I can't see it actually becoming a problem. The actual hardware interface on the printer is pretty disappointing though, yes it gets the job done but doing any kind of administrative work on it is just a pain in the neck with it's tiny text based LCD which is really only good for quickly checking the status. I honestly would have expected even a small graphical display on a printer like this these days.
Print quality is excellent for the cost of the printer, but feels slightly slow as I have used printers that cost less that produce prints faster. When I say that I don't mean to imply it's slow, it's still faster than anybody will care for if used in an appropriate environment like home or small office. I really don't have any issues with the print quality, as I expect from a laser text is particularly sharp even at small sizes while images definitely are not a strong suit here giving somewhat banded results for me particularly when compared to inkjet. That being said typical business graphics do come out quite well but don't expect anything photographic. I think it's important to mention that I found that the included toner in the box is, as is almost always the case, a starter cartridge *however* I have seen starter cartridges rated at as little as 500 pages included with printers in this price range but Epson claims 1000 pages here which is relatively generous. The scanner is not very fast, but I've found it completely usable for scanning documents and it having an ADF is definitely a nice touch that more than makes up for the scanning speed.
Connectivity is good, if not pretty much expected for any printer model in this class in 2019. USB, Ethernet and Wifi (including Wifi Direct, though I have never actually needed to use this) are all supported out of the box though the Ethernet connection is limited to 100Mbps. I always use Ethernet for my printers so I chose that method. Given most documents one would send to a mono laser tend not to be huge the 100Mbps connection isn't really a big deal but I still wish we'd see more use of pretty commonplace gigabit ethernet adapters in printers especially since I've seen it offered in similar printers already. Mobile printing does work, via Mopria (on the Play store, free).
As is par for the course these days with most printer manufacturers, the supporting software for the printer from Epson is rather ugly, somewhat obtuse in function and just feels old fashioned. The good news is that you don't really need to look at it much after you've set the printer up, and for what it's worth the driver does do it's job and give you enough control over what's going on.
Overall, I'm happy with the overall performance and feature set for the relatively low price for a laser multi-function particularly one that has a reasonable starter toner included. I wish it was a little more user friendly in terms of having a (way) better LCD display on it, which is really the one thing that really stands out to me as something that bugs me.

Great small office printer
The B205 is a solid laser printer / scanner.
Prints come out fast and are laser sharp. As a bw printer, it ticks the, "crisp text" box that is about as much as I ask for in terms of print quality. This connected to my computer easily and effortlessly - I would be surprised if anyone had any issues with this.
The scanner works very well and the ADF didn't hiccup when scanning through a stack of hole punched paper. It's not completely jam-proof and putting through some more... weathered... invoices managed to choke up the B205. That being said, it was easy enough to take out the paper without damaging the source file and honestly, the big Xerox at work also has similar problems occasionally. I like the ability to scan to email directly and find it really useful.
This is an excellent laser printer that is well suited for a small office. It's fast, sharp and the toner is economical.

Decent 3-in-1 machine
Xerox B205/NI Wireless Monochrome Printer with Scanner & Copier is a decent 3-in-1 machine. It’s straightforward to set up. The user interface is not great but still easy to understand and operate. Print speed is fast and print quality is good. It is not too heavy and still considered compact. You can easily fit it in any office or home setting. The tray capacity is decent too. It can be used wireless or with the front USB port. It’s black and white only. Overall, it’s great for office use or home business use.

Best Printer Ever
This printer is the best that I have owned. There are many features with this unit but the best one I like is the ability to print documents from my iPad and iPhone. The quality of the prints are excellent and I have not had any issues since connecting it over a month ago. I have a colour printer and now this one, a black and white printer. I use the Xerox one for all black and white documents which in turn makes my colour printer ink last longer. I would definitely recommend this printer to anyone looking for a great product with excellent printing abilities.

Xerox is one of my favorite printers
I like Xerox for a few reasons. I rarely need to print colour so the monochrome is fine. The toner lasts forever, it's literally years before I need to replace it which saves you a ton of cash. They are easy to set up to your wifi and with their app you can print from your phone. They print fast! This is best used for word documents and not photos or pictures. Great for home office or students writing paper.
Going Forward ✌️

Great choice for office environment.
Xerox B205/NI Wireless Monochrome Printer with Scanner & Copier was easy to install and straightforward to connect to our home network - which took about twenty minutes.
The printing from iPad, smartphone and laptop was seamless.
The quality of the prints depends on the quality of the paper and the quality print settings.
Overall excellent product.

Will not stop printing gibberish. Tech support drives me to drink.
I bought this to replace an identical printer made by Samsung which operated well for many years, then started printing 1-4 lines of gibberish on dozens of pages instead of the document I'd sent to it. After many hours attempting to fix this, I gave up and bought the identical printer, now sold by Xerox.
Almost immediately the Xerox started to do the same thing. I upgraded drivers. I changed operating systems. I spent hours on the phone with Apple. I finally found Xerox's number and called for tech support.
Agent 1: I can't give you tech support. You need to talk to Customer Service to register your printer.
Agent 2: Oh, I see you need to register your printer.
I called back.
Agent 3: I see your printer is registered with us.
Me: Really? The last two agents said I needed to register it.
Agent 3:
Me: Great! I need tech support. It prints dozens of pages of gibberish.
Agent 3: I can't give you tech support. There's a problem with your registration. It doesn't show the warranty.
Me: Okay, I'll send you the receipt.
Agent 3: You need to fax it.
Me: Fax? I haven't had a fax machine since the 80s. Where can I email it?
Agent 3: It has to be faxed. You see, it's a legal document, so you can't email it.
Me: A legal document? It's a receipt.
Agent 3: It's a legal document so it needs to be faxed.
Me: I'm a lawyer. I email legal documents all the time.
Agent 3: Fax.
Me: I don't have a fax. Are you telling me I can't get warranty support for this printer if I don't buy a fax machine first?
Agent 3: Fax. Do you want the number?
Me: Is this a joke? Or a way for Xerox to avoid servicing its products?
Agent 3: Fax.
Me: Because I don't have a fax and I won't get one.

More than an hour with this nonsense and I still have no working printer. But I do have a very large collection of mostly blank pieces of paper with 1-4 lines of gibberish on them. I should get a puppy and use them to house train it.

Disappointed
The printer does not work well. It will print but only the standard sheet size. The copier/scanner didn’t work. I called customer support and the first person I got was helpful in submitting my ticket. They had someone call me back and I wanted to scream. They had no clue about anything and told me that I called too late that I would have to call back the next day(mind you I didn’t call them they called me). I am guessing that that person didn’t process the call correctly so someone else called me the next day. Per the warranty you do not get tech support they just send you a new printer and then you have to ship the other back. I like the quickness of laser printing but this printer has been nothing but a hassle. I’ve had it less than 2 weeks.

Print, scan, copy, with hard-to-find scan to USB feature
Print, scan and copy - clear instructions, easy set-up, easy connection to wifi. Scan to usb feature tops - negates networking as necessity. I like black & white only aspect - no color cartridge expenses, and for most printouts b&w just fine. Footprint same as smaller printers, copy and scan add only to unit height

We LOVE this printer. It’s super fast and reliable. Our old one was wireless but wouldn’t work half the time. I love that I’m not wasting printer ink anymore! I highly recommend this if you don’t need to print anything in color.

Prints with Xerox banner Pages
Good printer to use if you’re just getting started. I disliked the Xerox banner page that prints before every print job. Contacted Xerox and they were unable to assist with deleting the banner title page.

Good printing. Poor startup and UI.
One of the messiest toner cartridge designs, seemingly mutually exclusive connectivity selection and default "system test" toner-wasting full-page prints on startup and with every print job makes this one of the least desirable out-of-the-box multi-function printer experiences we have had. This was supposed to be an exciting component of my daughter's first day at college (while supporting our home town company) and it turned out to be the only frustrating part. And I'm an engineer. We kept it because it prints good.

Great laser printer for the price
Nice size -doesn’t take up too much desk space, good quality print, great value for the price. I use the print and scan functions both of which work great. Works great with my iPhone and iPad as well. I use it for low volume personal use. Not sure how it would hold up as a shared, high volume printer.

Very happy with this purchase. It scans to email, scans to desktop, copies, prints, prints double-sided. It's a solid printer. It replaces a very cheap feeling HP printer that only scanned to .jpg and was lightweight. This does exactly what it says it will.

Perfect home laser printer
I have been using this printer for two months now. I have been totally satisfied with the quality of the print and the number of functions it offers. The only downside is the duplex printing is to be done manually. But this is the best value for money laser printer with crisp printing at home.

Xerox Not with the Times
Honestly, one of the worst printers I’ve ever purchased. It consistently prints gibberish or garbled lettering instead of any documents or photos. Borderline no good tech support. Xerox is so outdated they aren’t even creating firmware for the latest generation of Mac software, and no way to update the printer over Wifi. Just get an HP or something instead.
