...I currently have an Epson R265 which uses 6 inks plus a Canon scanner and was sceptical about All-In-One devices. More to go wrong was my thought. But 49.99 from Staples it was worth the risk and quite honestly for the money, the quality is fantastic. At that price, unless you need very high quality results, this is perfect for Home and Small-business use.
The size of the device:
Has the same footprint as my R265 but save space from not having ... ...devices needs computer and software to scan and print. With All-in-one you switch it on and press the copy button.
Print speed is excellent and colour match is much better than the R265. I will admit that this could be down to me using compatible inks in the old printer - Get what you pay for? Maybe a lesson there.
The R265 was not renowned for normal printing as it is in the Photo-printer class but the DX7400 is designed with that use in mind ...

Quick review of Epson Stylus DX7400
Epson DX7400 After loading drivers I tried to use my printer and found it would not print. I tried the photo copy facility and it produced an excellent colour picture. The printer now indicated that the ink had run out. I bought new ink cartridges and the same thing happened. I returned the printer to the shop and after four days they replaced the printer.
All is now working, but I find the printer snatches the paper in a very aggresive way. ...

Quick review of Epson Stylus DX7400
Very disappointed in this printer. Very noisy. Draft quality is not really very good. And other option seems to be the perfect one. So no in between quality which I had with old printers.
Tried to refill ink cartridge and was shocked to find it is of the variety where you cannot just do this. Need to either purchase a device to fool the printer! Or download something from the internet, which I went to do, but could not find the download for my exact model. So still working on that.
Ink refills tiny and mine have not lasted very long at all.
All in all not impressed and wish I had not bought it. ...

Quick review of Epson Stylus DX7400
I get this printer about a month ago and it have been a really good product. The printing is good, but as always, the paper you use have a big impact in the final outcome. The results I have get do far haven't been really good, but the paper I have use wasn't been the best. So I expect to get better results with a better paper. The scanner is good, and the program have three programs or ways to print depending on the experience and knowledge the user have on printing. The professional way to print is very hard to use in the beginning, and also unclear. That bad thing, is, as always, the noise. Even that it is not so noisy. ...
