Advantages: Wireless function is easy, print from anywhere. Disadvantages: While the black finish is nice, it really is a dust magnet.
After having Epson printers before, I decided to go for another one. But this time, one with wireless capabilities.
In box with the printer is the power cable, USB cable (you need these for the initial set up), a set of cartridges and a small pack of photo paper.

Installation
The salesman advised me to set it up on the desktop initially as it would be hard wired via USB. If you hear this don't let it put you off. The set-up works fine even if you have a single ...
