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: Ease of use, quality, paper size

...for Gloss opimizer. These are epson original replacements. Printer is quiet and easy to use but I prefer a hard copy manual and not on computer pdf supplied on disk. This printer also prints onto printable Cd/Dvd's and comes with accessories to you allow to do this. It also came with a full set of full inks. My previous printers have only come with 50% full inks. Printer utility disks are usefull and allow easy print head cleaning and nozzle checks ...
...the buttons on the printer. One disadvantage is the lack of LCD display. I prefer to be able to see ink levels and printing information on the display as my printer is situated away from my pc. Printing speed is a little slow but I really dont mind if the quality is as good as this. Overall I would recommend this printer due to its excellent quality and value for money, printable size up to A3+. The only disadvantage I could find is that the inks ... Read review

Advantages: Quality of output, price
Disadvantages: Size, fiddliness of settings

...own pictures. I use Canon digital cameras and decided to go with a Canon printer, both on recommendation and because you often seem to get the best results by using the same brand for a whole process. Anyway, I had a look at some prints from a Pro9000 and was completely blown away by the quality of them. I bought one and am very glad that I did. The printer body is quite large as it can print up to A3 size which is a bit of a pain if you want ...
...you print high resolution prints. Canon consumables are horribly expensive but you can get some good deals on ebay etc. The quality of your prints will be very affected by the grade of paper that you choose. I have found that Canon Paper Pro gives the best results and the next grade down (super glossy) is good for the sizes that Paper Pro does not come in. I have been told that printer paper has a fine layer of surface chemicals and these are designed ... Read review

Disadvantages: None that I can see

Well if you fancy yourself as a bit of a photographer and take lots of photos and edit them, but you only use a normal Photo Printer to print your Photos then think again. This is one hell of a Printer, you achieve fantastic studio like photos from your DSLR camera. I Went on a bit of a spending spree a few months back and bought one of these, I have only just really got to use it to full potential. Obviously as soon as I got it a played around with ...

Well I will till you, This is a professional and excellent style 10 colour A3 photo Printer. So great for printing high resolution prints onto A3 photo paper, but also great for making posters etc. Its not just great for Colour prints but it also produces excellent quality ... Read review

...The Photo Printer itself (obviously), HP 70 Printheads (x4), HP 38 Pigment Ink Cartridges with Vivera Inks (8 individual ink cartridges), HP Photosmart Premier Software on CD-ROM, HP ProPrint plug-in for Adobe Photoshop®, user's guide, power cord and a quick start booklet. *************OVERALL************** Most definately this is a printer that is aimed at the professional and creative photographer. It is a real heavy duty printer and there is ...
...capable of copying with heavy duty use. The colour quality is 1st rate as is the speed. It really does give you that superb opportunity to print large photos with A1 quality. I really do have to say that unless you are a serious digital photographer, this is not the printer for you. The price reflects the quality. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this review. I really do hope this has helped you. Please do leave a feedback for me. ... Read review
