Lexmark International X2350

Advantages: Price, Copier
Disadvantages: Paper feed, print quality

...just the one cartridge - lexmark no1) as the colour black prints out as dark blue - don't even think about trying to print out photographs. As with all lexmark budget printers the paper feed is very frustrating. I find myself putting 1 sheet of paper into feeder at a time as it struggles to handle any more than that. It generally pushes out all the paper if you attempt to load several sheets. Another problem I've had is that it is not compatible ...
...the lexmark site but this is quite long winded and not guarenteed to work instantly (I had to download the drivers twice). The copying facilty is probably the best feature as you can simply use the printer directly without having to go through the computer. Scratching around for other positives..... The ink cartridge (for what its worth) is reasonably priced at around £13. Thats about all. I strongly advise you not to buy this product unless quality ...

Review of Lexmark International 2350

Very cheap 3-in-1 but perhaps for a reason

Advantages: Scanner, price
Disadvantages: Printing, reliability

Picture Quality The picture quality is average but to be expected from a printer in this price range. I only ever use it for text documents anyway and I would imagine this printer usually would be that purpose so I do not think that it is a significant problem. Printing Speed The printing speed is poor in comparison to other printers in the same price range but this has been sacrificed in order to provide both scanner and copier. The speed is not ...
...frustrating and could be a problem if you are in a hurry. Colour sensitivy Again, text documents do not demand much and this printer is predictably mediocre when it comes to the quality of documents it produces. Reliability The printer jams often and I have some difficulty loading paper, it is either not far in enough or is pushed too far down and has to be removed. The printer also often regurgitates documents and misprints them and can be extremely ...

Epson Stylus Photo PX700w / PX710W Multifunctional Printer

Advantages: Excellent Quality Photos - Easy Controls -Excellent Price - Wi Fi - Good Looking.
Disadvantages: Poor print in draft mode ( easily overcome) - paper drawer seems a bit flimsy.

The Epson Stylus Photo PX710W Multifunctional Printer is, according to Epson themselves, a so-called refresh model of the earlier PX700w model. To begin with,i want to point out the following :- While searching for the Epson PX700W (price at Epson £149.99) i found that it was being discontinued at most outlets and replaced by the PX710W refresh model,(priced at £199.95 at Epson) On comparing the Technical Specifications between each of the models ...
...the 2 models,so i contacted Epson to ask what the difference was between the models,they replied that the PX710W was a refresh model with a slightly faster print speed.WRONG,WRONG,WRONG !!!. There was absolutely no difference at all between the 2 models in any of the Technical Specifications. I contacted Epson again to point this out and they IMMEDIATELY dropped the price of the PX710W model on their site by £50 down to £149.95.It had been a TOTAL ...

EPSON Stylus SX515W - stylish, capable but not perfect

Advantages: Stylish, fast printing, quality output, good range of functions
Disadvantages: A bit noisy, poor manuals

...I decided to purchase the Epson SX515W as it looked good, had all the features I wanted and was a good price. 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 laptop but you must ensure the printer is connected to it via USB when the initial printer setup is carried out. Anyhow, I set the ...
...documents are very quick and clear. Photographs when printed on photo paper are incredible ! Just as good as anything from a shop. I only had one problem which was not a fault with the printer but I will mention it. I initially couldn't get wireless printing to work. It turned out it was my firewall blocking the request being sent to the printer. I had to manually change my BitDefender settings to allow it to work and its been ok since. As I say, ...

Review of Epson Stylus SX515W

Shiney turd

Advantages: Good for making your wallet lighter
Disadvantages: Displays NO INK when the inks are really full WHAT A RIP OFF

...printer to replace my aging epson R300 when it finally died......What a mistake. Looked great when i first bought it the scan function was handy and the print quality was top notch. The when the ink was at about half way (3 photo prints) it decided not to recognize the cartridges. No big problem i though they were probably just test cartridges so i bought some more. i only printed about 10 pages in black and white and 1 photo for the next 2 weeks ...
...colors. They were new in EPSON branded. so i cracked them open with a knife to find they were all near full and went and bought some more. 2 weeks later and 4 10x15 photos SAME AGAIN all inks empty. So i phoned epson support who basically told me i would need to just buy more ink and only to use the expensive epson branded cartridge My thoughts EPSON are having a laugh and have the printer programed to display all ink empty after a set time limit ...
