The Packard Bell of printers.

by gerper Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Apr 16 '00
Pros: Nice support personnel at Epson.
Cons: Unreliable equipment. Breaks for no reason.
After buying my top of the line Micron computer (at least for a week), I needed a printed. Off to CompUSA for a good deal (or so I thought), so I bought the Epson printer because is was just that, a good deal. Affordability and the fact that it printed...

I Love it! Great for photos! I own a digital camera and use it a whole lot, in fact, I no longer use a regular camera at all. This printer does great justice to my photos!!!

The cartridges are very reasonable, if you shop around for off...

Excellent All Round Printer

by treenab , Nov 19 '00
Pros: excellent photographic quality, easy to set-up and install, great all round printer
Cons: slow for office use, noisy, can be heavy on ink usage
Being a student of Photography and Digital Imaging I was looking for a printer that fit my budget, offered great printing quality and was easy to use. All my tutors and professors pointed me towards the Epson brand, and I am glad they did.

Pros: Easy Installation, Fast
Cons: Driver issues, Poor control Panel, Inefficient Use of Ink, Print Quality Issues
I've always prided myself on my ability to select high quality computer parts at reasonable prices.

Far and Away the Best For the Buck

by ArthurG , Jul 26 '00
Pros: Reliable and TOUGH! Performs to Specs.
Cons: The PUPPY Makes Tons Of Noise! If You Care?
ONE:....Why did I purchase this baby? Well to make a very happy story --short--I was looking for a new HP printer. I never owned any printer but a HP. I had a real bad feeling about the EPSON name. You know what I mean?
A stack of EPSONs were...

Does the job it starts...

by karielle , Apr 01 '00
Pros: Good quality printing
Cons: Paper doesn't readily flow through and the ink clogs up at times.
This printer is my first Epson purchase, and I have to say that I am mostly pleased with it.

I normally would have gone for the Hewlett Packard series, but the salesman talked me into buying this one. It was cheaper than the other one that I...

Pros: Relatively cheap
Cons: Loud, printer head malfunctions, not very responsive
I currently have two printers, one of which is a Canon BJC-4300, and the other an Epson Stylus Color 640. I have owned the Canon for quite a few years, and it has never once given me any problems. On the other hand, my Epson that I purchased about a...

There are better choices!

by flatcreek , Apr 01 '00
Pros: Print job and Ink level monitor
Cons: Cost of printing per page. Operation of printer driver.
I got my Epson Stylus 640 as part of a package deal from a computer company that appears to own dairy cows on the side. Or maybe they milk cows and sell computers on the side -- whatever. I had previous positive experience with Epson printers of the dot...

The highs and lows of the Epson Stylus series

by kotetu , Mar 31 '00
Pros: Quality printing, variety of models
Cons: Loud, high cost of ink
I have been a fan of Epson for a long time; they have always been pretty much at the cutting edge of inkjet color printing. I bought my own Epson 640 based on the price and performance I had noted from friends systems.

There are several...

Pros: Fast text printing. Good quality image printing.

I purchased my Epson Stylus Color 640 for a mere $39.95 (after rebates) and I am very happy with it so far!

I have had this printer since January (about 8 months) and I have had no problems with it at all! In fact, it has been a great...

THE BEST, Think again...

by tobrien , Jan 26 '00
Pros: low price, great if used every day
Cons: print quality deteriorates fast, high price of ink cartridges.
I have had my Epson for about a year. The cost of the printer is very low to encourage customers to purchase the product. When I first bought the printer, I was very happy with the quality, but it has gone down hill from there. The Epson is not a bad...

Great all-around printer

by kevins10 , Jan 13 '00
Pros: Easy to use/setup, separate black & color cartridges, handles heavier paper
Cons: Uses lots of ink, takes a long time to start up
I've had my Epson 640 for six months now, and have been extremely pleased with it. It replaced my older color inkjet, a Lexmark 150c, which died an early death due to too much printing. I chose this printer because I was not happy with the Lexmark,...

Nice Printer

by radio1_mike , Apr 24 '00
Pros: Great Text And Photos
Cons: You May Need Headphones
Before buying this printer in September of 1998, I owned a Canon BJC-200e and Panasonic KXP-1126. So as you may surmise, this printer was a step up for me.

It can print up 1440x720 in color mode, and 600dpi in text mode. The printer cartridges...

by chefitz , Dec 09 '99
Pros: price, quality
Cons: uses up ink cartridge fast
When I had to replace my old laser printer, I debated inkjet/laser and read all the reviews. I bought the Epson Stylus 640 because of the reviews and the low price. I bought it online from buy.com for $113 and got it the next day (standard delivery).
