Pros: Big name product - Epson. Not too expensive initial cost.
Cons: Expensive ink. Terrible quality prints and colors. Noise acceptable if print quality better.

We bought this product for the Epson name and because the Epson rep was at the store where we were shopping and he sold us on this printer. I took a Photoshop class at the local community college and was trying to make some prints for class and ...

Cons: Extremely small ink cartridges. Chronic nozzle clogs.

Update 12/29/03. Well.... The magic is gone. We just went through about 5 ink cartridges attempting to clear a clogged nozzle. After doing some searching on the net, it appears that clogged nozzles are common with Epson printers. I even tried ...

Cons: Needs card adapters, printing borderless a bit confusing

I got this printer as a Christmas gift and although I haven't used it much, I really do love it. Ink for inkjets is slightly expensive, so I try to use it sparingly. I just purchased a color and black cartridge from Staples and they cost approx. $45...

Pros: Great value for the money, great quality output
Cons: Output tray is flimsy, does eat ink when doing high quality prints

I purchased my 785EPX a few days ago, and I have tested it on many types of different shots that I have taken with my Sony DSC-P31 Camera (which has 2.1 Megapixels). I usually run the camera on its 640x480 mode so that I can have more pictures, but I...

Pros: Good quality print jobs.
Cons: Eats ink, clogs constantly, paper feed jams, expensive, proprietary ink cartridges.

On the plus side, the Epson 785EPX prints very good quality pictures, has a convenient card reader for digital photo memory cards.

Pros: The photo print quality is very good.
Cons: Everything else is very poor.

I replaced an HP 722C with this printer as the HP utilities could not be used with Windows XP. I read the reviews, checked all the prices and ordered the Epson. I was concerned when I installed it and I realized how noisy and bouncy it was when it went...

Pros: Excellent photo quality. PC slot for card adapter.
Cons: None of the software for printing or editing was compatible with XP.

I love this little printer. Sure it is a little noisy and bulky but for the price I am extremely satisfied. I printed Christmas cards this year and they were of equal or better quality than the photo shop here in town. I have found that the type of paper...

Pros: Nice index print ("contact sheet")
Cons: Doesn't work (stand-alone) with 16MB SD card

Against my advice, my dad purchased this printer and a Kodak CX4230 camera for my mom for Christmas. She doesn't have, nor does she want a computer - hence the decision on this stand-alone printer. It is supposed to be able to print photos directly...

Pros: Excellent quality photos. Great value. Accepts Flash cards.
Cons: A little noisy.

The Epson Stylus Photo 785EPX was my first photo printer. I was really surprised to see how good the quality was for such a low priced printer. 10 times better than my epson that came with my computer. I print on Epson paper and set my photo software on...

Pros: Awesome photo quality on Epson papers
Cons: Expensive ink cartridges Waste lots of ink clearing clogs

I have a love-hate relationship with this printer. As a very serious amateur photographer, I love the quality of prints I can make with this printer and all of the different digital cameras I've used, including a Nikon D100.

However, if you're...

Pros: Good quality print jobs, inexpensive ink, multiple features.
Cons: Slooooooooow, HUGE, doesn't come w/required USB cable.

I sorted through all the photographs I've ever taken throughout my entire life the other day and found the whole experience to be rather amusing. I threw out about half of the pictures, most of them containing a dozen pictures of blurred faces,...
