Epson Stylus CX3810 All In One Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Excellent value. Prints, copies, flatbed scans as expected. Uniquely prints photos that are smug and water resistant. No other multi-function manufacturer offers that.
Well engineered. Smooth and easy setup. Photos are excellent for a multi-function, nearly as good as my Epson Picturemate.
I thought about buying the more expensive Epson CX5800F because it offers fax. I seldom use fax so instead I'll just scan in the document, then either email or use internet fax.
My only knock is that this is marketed under the overloaded term "All in one" so I guess that makes the CX5800F an "All-er in one". It would be so much clearer if the industry adopted acronyms like PSC or PSCF to clearly distinguish major functions at a glance.

Epson Stylus CX4200 Inkjet Printer Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Below is the message which my boyfriend sent to their customer support. I am certain you can figure out the problem.
I am incredibly offended by your ink policy regarding the Epson Stylus CX4200. In particular, I want to print a black and white text document, but am unable to do so without replacing my color cartridges. Not only that, but when I try to print, your Epson Status Monitor 3 pops up and reminds me that I don't have color ink, and wouldn't I like to buy some? When I visit your FAQ, and try to figure out how to explain to my printer that it doesn't need color ink in order to print my black and white document, the FAQ tells me that yes, I do. And wouldn't I like to buy some ink?
No. I do not want to buy more color ink. I want to print my document. You do _not_ need color ink for this purpose.
I find it overwhelmingly insulting to imagine a meeting where this policy was arrived at. Clearly someone must have suggested letting the printer print black and white documents without color cartridges, and the response must have been "instead, we could really rip our customers off!" Why any company would be willing to anger their customers so much is beyond me. I cannot imagine myself buying Epson products in the future. I am certainly _not_ going to buy color ink cartridges just so I can print my black and white documents. I'm simply going to sit here and reflect at how incredibly stupid and insulting your current policy is.

Epson Ultra High Definition R260 Photo Inkjet Printer Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)After using another Epson inkjet for five years with excellent results (Model 785EPX) I bought the R260 about 3 months ago so I could print CDs and take advantage of the five individual color cartridges instead of a single 5-color cartridge.
My idea was that now I could replace only the individual color cartridges as they were used up rather than replace the whole 5-color cartridge when only one color was used up. Since the combined size of the five individual color cartridges on the R260 is much larger than the single 5-color cartridge, I expected much longer cartridge life, less waste, and lower ink costs with the R260.
Was I wrong! I was completely blown away by how quickly the ink levels drop in the R260 color cartridges. While you're printing, you can see the levels drop significantly after each print. After 25 prints, some of the color cartridges needed replacement!
So, instead of getting 50-60 prints out of the single smaller 5-color cartridge, I am getting half as many prints out of the larger single color R260 cartridges.
Since the amount of ink used for each print is about the same as my old printer, the only answer is that Epson is putting a tiny amount of ink in each R260 cartridge.
What makes it worse is that Epson charges you $15 for each cartridge at their on-line store. The high-capacity cartridges with 50% more ink are $20 each (33% more), but that only helps a little.
I am considering throwing the R260 away and staying with my older Epson. When that dies, I will definitely switch brands unless Epson comes back down to planet Earth on ink capacity/cost issues.

Epson Stylus CX6600 Photo Printer, Copier, Scanner Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I was nervous about getting an all-in-one printer. Usually these printers do an average job at three different things and don't really do anything well. But, I had good reviews elsewhere (Consumer Reports, etc.) and decided to give it a chance.
Pros:
*Fast Printer
*Very good quality (we printed our Christmas cards with a black and white picture on it and people were surprised it came off of our printer).
*Good copier and quick
*Easy to set up
*Easy to use
*Less expensive ink--I have had Lexmarks and other brands but the ink was very expensive. Epson is relatively inexpensive comparing with other printer ink costs.
Cons:
The biggest con that I have found with this printer is the out of ink problem. You have 4 different cartridges (black, cyan, magenta and another color). If one of those cartridges runs out, you cannot print anything. It locks you up until your replace that cartridge. This is silly because if you still have black, why can't you just print black and white?
Overall
I am pleased and think it is a terrific printer/scanner/copier all at a good price.
