Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)When I review a product, I like to mention the problems first, then detail the things I like. For this review, there are quite simply no things I like about this printer.
Connectivity: Poor. I've been able to connect a wide variety of devices to my wireless G network, including a Brother printer, but this printer will not connect no matter what I do. This isn't terribly important, however, given the other problems I've had.
Print: Print quality is acceptable. Given the quantity of ink this printer guzzles, I'd hope it would be. After replacing what I assumed were starter cartridges, I got 40 ordinary text pages out of the replacement carts. There's no longer a need to connect this monster to my wireless network, since it's cheaper to print text on my Canon photo printer.
Fax: It will not receive faxes. All is configured correctly, the printer reports an incoming ring, it's set to answer, but when I try to force it to answer it returns the error "Load paper for fax printing." Paper is loaded, and I made a copy to test that there are no feed problems.
Copy: B&W copying is acceptable, but again, not cheap. I'm not going to try a color copy until I have no choice.
Scan: Acceptable. I'm using an 8GB SDHC card and scanning directly to the card, since of course there's no network connection. It works, but an ordinary scanner would produce better quality scans and take up a whole lot less space.
I've had my eye on a large format Epson printer, but this is the last Epson product I will ever own. I do recognize that the photo printers are a very different beast than the Workforce printers, but if this is the kind of quality that Epson will put its name on, I've lost all respect for the company.
