Despite its higher price tag, the abundance of features seemingly justifies the cost, making it a worthwhile addition for both amateur and seasoned photographers alike. Its minor hardware and software glitches are outweighed by the over-all capabilities, versatility and convenience it offers.


  • A great printer, economical ink, and 13” x 19”
I have used this printer frequently for a year. Overall, it works well and produces both b&w and color prints I sell in a gallery. I have used an assortment of high quality papers from Epson, Illford, and Red River. Even after a mishap with a paper being feed through wrong side up causing a mess on the rollers, a few cleaning cycles cleared them up. If you are using thick paper make sure you have the thick paper setting turned on. I didn’t want a scanner but it has come in handy on more than one occasion. Primarily I make 13” x 19” prints, the ink tanks are great and my costs have gone down compared to my Canon Pixma Pro which uses a lot of ink. The price of ink for this printer is very reasonable. Setup was easy and no issues with using the printer. Highly recommended! ... show more

  • Epson finally did inkjet printing right
Congratulations Epson I don't hate you anymore. I have had Epson inkjet printers for about 30 years. For my work as an artist I usually buy this size wide carriage 13x19. However I have never ever advised that anyone else I know buy a color inkjet printer unless they absolutely need one. I have two black and white laser printers that I adore because they just work, lightning fast, the toner is cheap, the print quality is excellent. My parents for instance have against my advice had a couple of color inkjets because they very occasionally want to print in color. Misery. The ink cartridges are always empty the heads are always clogged and the thing just refuses to print in black and white even though the black cartridge is full but one of the color cartridges is empty. My old Epson r2880 has eight tiny little cartridges and one or two of them are ALWAYS low or empty and they are crazy expensive. The cartridges are also chipped so that you can't use anyone else's aftermarket cartridges, and there's a whole industry dedicated to getting around these issues. In my opinion it's a terrible business model for a printer company because you make your customers hate you, go to great lengths to buy cheaper ink from other companies, and it all discourages them from using the printer and doing a lot of printing and buying your other supplies like paper. Well I read an awful lot about these new tank style printers and how they could potentially solve most of these issues. And I have to say I think they have nailed it. This printer is an absolute joy to use and you just look for excuses to print anything. The gloss prints on Epson ultra premium paper are simply the finest gloss prints I've ever seen. The ink tanks are huge and transparent so you can tell how much ink is in them and the ink lasts a way long time and it's really not that expensive. The ink bottles are actually kind of brilliant you can't put the wrong ink in the wrong tank cuz the nozzles are different shapes and they don't drip ink at all or anything. You can top them up at any time it's beautiful. Turns out you really don't need 8 or 10 colors to print gorgeous luminous prints. I am happy to buy Epson brand ink under these conditions. I mean I could still buy a different company's ink and put it in these tanks but why would you?I've always liked Epson photo paper and use it almost exclusively. I actually tell my kids to go and use the printer all they want. My neighbors too. If there's a print you think you might like print it for goodness sake! Print it larger! Now see Epson: THAT is a business model. I had trepidations as this is a die ink printer. Everyone says artists should "use pigment inks for archival longevity". I've decided I just don't care. Pigment inks tend to clog. They actually don't look that good on glossy paper did anyone ever tell you that? They need a special varnish coat in order for the gloss to pop. If one of these dye prints fades in 20 years you know what it's digital files, I'll just go print the darn thing again it's not that expensive on a printer like this. I even kind of like the Epson print layout software, even though it looks like it was designed in the Windows XP era, and the scanner and it's software work quite well. I've had Epson flatbed scanners also for years and this one being built directly into the printer is just very useful. The touch screen also works well and you can quickly run off a copy which I've never really been able to do before, because I've had a separate printer and scanner and it's just too much of a pain to fire them both up and get on the computer. Also the wireless print function is really great. I can print a 4x6 from my phone in a few clicks, or a PDF from my tablet, what have you. There's even a special paper slot just to hold 4x6s in addition to other paper, gloss full sheets in the rear feed, plain paper in the bottom tray. They really have kind of thought of everything with this printer. If I need to do some serious black and white printing of text I will still use the laser. On cheap copy paper the inkjet looks a little fuzzy and is actually not waterproof. But if I didn't have a laser I wouldn't go out and buy one because one printer is better than two. Just use inkjet plain paper and you'll be set This is a printer I can happily recommend to basically anyone, and I have never been able to say that about a color ink jet before. ... show more

  • Defect with tray 1 on all units and how to fix "out of paper" & "paper jam"
There is a critical engineering error on tray one. It will cause your tray one to indicate that there is no paper or continually say that there is a paper jam. There are tons of posts about this issue on Reddit. I found one and after reading it found that there is a pretty simple issue. Let's start with the problem, then the solution. You will have this error sooner than later on this printer. Epson knows about it but for some reason has not fixed it even though it fix is super easy. It is so common that we got to printers in a row with the same issue. On paper tray one, you put the paper in and use these little blue slides to adjust and hold in place. Then you put the tray into the slot and when you try to print it tries to pull that paper up to the big rubber roller. This is where the problem is. The bottom of the tray is pushed up by two springs which are two fragile to firmly push the tray where it needs to go. So the printer tries to grab the paper but it grabs nothing and thinks that it is empty or in some cases it tries to grab the paper and gets it partially but not well enough so it calls it a paper jam. How do you fix this? Take paper trays one and two out. Turn the unit over. On the bottom you will see the black roller and two little black rollers and you will see the two springs that were talking about. Take the two springs out with tweezers. Make sure before you do this that you have bought two G2 gel pens. They sell them at Costco in 10 packs. The spring that is in the gel Pen is the perfect size to fit inside of the spring that came out of the printer. Put one gel spring inside of each of the printers springs and reinstall them using the tweezers. It takes about 30 seconds to take the springs out and about 7 or 8 minutes to put them back in simply because it is hard to get them aligned. But with a little bit of patience you will get them back into the unit. That's it, it is fixed. The additional firmness of the G2 gel pin springs will ensure that the tray is pushed up firmly so that the big roller can grab your paper. Not sure why Epson is not just replace the springs with a firmer spring, but if you run into this issue you know that the cost to fix it is simply to pens. The fact that it is such an easy fix and Epson has not put into place that easy fix made me give this printer a one star. Having said that, it is a great printer otherwise. ... show more
