...☼ My long lived Epson C42 plus gave up the ghost a while back so I decided to invest in a new printer. I’ve stayed loyal to Epson as there were no alternatives similar in specification and ability out on the market just now in the same price bracket as the Stylus 1400. I chose this printer as I want a printer that can print high quality photographs from digital and scanned photographs, something capable of A3 print size to print technical ...

I’d like to share this Epson printer with you. It is well worth the investment if you want high quality prints with superb colour. • The printer is able to provide ‘borderless’ prints although in reality the A4 and over prints actually have a 2 mm border approx which isn’t bad at all. It gives true borderless prints on papers 4" x 6", 5" x 7", and 8" x 10" in size • The maximum paper size it takes is 215.9 mm x 355.6 mm ( classed as legal : A4 is ...

Advantages: Photo quality is amazing and it is very speedy
Disadvantages: LCD screen could do with being a slight bit bigger

...my printer at home my Epson c66 broke and so i happily took this one back from work. The machine takes 6 cartridges black, magenta, cyan , yellow, light cyan and light magenta. The 'light' cartridges are what give the photos that extra quality compared to using just the 4 usual ones. The cartridges are also not very expensive compared to that of Lexmark and HP and although there are 6 you use less magenta and cyan than usual as they are coming from ...
...appropriate paper, i recommend the epson premium glossy photo paper which you can get in A4 or 4 x 6. The machine also has a tray you can insert so you can print directly on to CD's and DVD's which is extremely handy. You have to buy particular CD's and DVD's whci hare printable but this are not really any expensive than normal ones. I will warn you though that in my experience they take about 12 hours to dry which is fine if you dont need to do ... Read review

Advantages: Light-resistant print-outs, print quality
Disadvantages: Ink use, price

SUBJECT: Epson Stylus Photo 2000P I got to use this machine a couple of months ago during a week. This may not seem long, but keep in my mind I used for 8 hours almost every day, so I got a pretty good idea of what it is capable. Special feature: DY INK +++++++++++++++++++++ Before summing all the different features of this machine, I'll start by explaining the particularity of this machine. It doesn't use regular ...
...a strong chemical combination. Epson claims that the print-outs are light-resistant for... 100 years! Impressive, but how will we check it? Apart from that, it just like an ordinary printer: - 1440*720dpi: good comapring to the competition, but already surpassed by the other Epson Photo's. - 7pl dots: idem - 6 colors: black, 2 shades of red, 2 shades of blue, yellow Paper +++++ This a A3+ printer. (A3+ is a bit larger than A3) All A3 printers ... Read review

Advantages: good print quality, cheap copy cartridges, stand alone if needed
Disadvantages: none really

The Epson R300 is a good low cost Photo Printer. It has lots of useful features, for instance you can print direct from a camera, or pop a memory card into the reader on the front. If you're connected to a PC then it can use the memory card reader as well. It is also possible to attach a Bluetooth module and print direct from a camera phone, but I've not tried this. You can buy a colour LCD for it so that you can preview pictures before you print ...
...and it can knock 6x4 prints out in a minute or so. It also has the capability of printing direct onto white coated CD/DVDs if you want to make your Disks look smart! I get my ink from eBay, and this does not seem to massively affect the quality of printouts but is much cheaper. The set up is very straightforward. The printer has a little LCD screen that gives out status messages and other information, so it is worth remembering this before you ... Read review
