This is the 3rd one of these printers that I’ve owned! They are super reliable and great photo quality! I work these units to death as I use them for my Video business! Thus the reason for being on my 3rd printer!

I like it for the ability to print on CD/DVD. one irritant that is worse on this one than on earlier versions.. I am using a bulk feed system for ink. The printer stops because of foreign cartridge error at least once every day compared to once after cartridge change on earlier models. Once I have done the reset, it will print for an extended time without further errors, but a long pause between jobs will bring back the error. I have created a "reset page" with nothing but a half dozen spaces. I can send this then do the reset without consuming ink or paper still a nuisance. I also use an "autoprint" program to exercise every three days to reduce print nozzle issues, this will not work when I am on vacation I have owned about 8 or 10 similar Epson printers and this new feature will cause me to look for something differentRead full review

This printer is an excellent quality printer. I've owned 4 of them now - the reason being is that after 2 years of moderate use, you get an "your printer is at the end of it's useful life" message, and you have to buy a new one. There are solutions to this on the web that gets you another 3 months or so. I found that by searching the web because it doesn't give you any advance warning, just QUITS with the error message! I also found that you have to adjust the color settings to match your monitor which can take a few prints to do. Once set, you'll love the quality of prints. Ink is cheap - 6 colors so you only have to replace what's out. Also takes bulk ink system - save even more. My only complaint is for the price, it should last longer than 2 yrs!! Epson needs to get it right. There's really not another model that prints on CD's and does as good of job printing photos.Read full review
First of all I have about 6 of these printers. I keep buying them used since to buy them NEW is too expensive. It is a discontinued model and the people selling them know that the newer models do not work as well. The biggest reasons that I like this model printer is thet it does a great job printing on Inkjet Printable CD's. I have a singing group and we make our own cd's. It make very professional printed cd's. If you want a printer just for printing on paper, there are much less expensive printers on the market. As far as ink costs go, buing the original inks are fairly expensive. About $16.95 each x 6, but there are many good aftermarket inks available that you can get for about $2.00 each in quantity.
I have used an Epson R320 for years so I knew what it could do. My old machine developed print quality issues that became fatal. I had the software for the R320 already installed and lots of new cartridges so I replaced it with this one. It had missing or scuffed parts but I salvaged good ones from the old machine. After a head cleaning, using a kit from eBay, and a head alignment procedure, it prints perfectly, better than the old one. I got a good value.
