Epson Stylus Photo 2000P Inkjet Printer

Pros: Excellent detail, superb resolution, prints suppose to last from 140-200 years, USB and parallel.
Cons: Pricey, metamerism too evident (shifts to green too much), painfully slow, consumes too much ink.

This very well could be a professional printer for professional photographers (that's what the "P" in 2000P suppose to mean), but it has three big flaws: One is that the final print looks very different under different types of light. The second one, is...

Pros: Highest quality prints you will find - better than your photo shop
Cons: Expensive initial investment

I waited a long time to buy this printer. It took a lot of personal justification to spend the money. In the end I got it refurbished directly from Epson's website.

The archival inks and the specialty papers add to the cost of printing with...

Pros: Fast Color printer Great Picture quality Both USB and IEEE Ports
Cons: Does not print to edge, Discontinued for the 1280

I was looking for a printer to start out my home graphic design business with and found this one on clearance. It gives me the opportunity to print on paper from 4x6 up to 13x49 banner paper. The picture quality is outstanding. I love the fact that it...

Pros: Quality of Prints!
Cons: Should only be used as a PHOTO PRINTER!

I purchased this printer with only one thing in mind. I wanted to stop using a developers lab to print my pictures. I no longer use a lab to print proof sheets, or any but the largest size prints. This printer does for me everything that I expect a...

Pros: Great photo print quality, wide carriage for Super A3/B prints
Cons: Makes a mess of the ink platen, borders, no roll adapter

I've had this printer for around 6 months, and it's ALREADY been replaced by the Stylus Photo 1280, and rightly so.

What's included

The printer itself is rather sturdy, though I have to admit i'm not a fan of smoked...

Pros: Photo quality prints that look like real photos!
Cons: Price! Way too much for just a printer.

Epson Stylus Photo 2000P does high quality color pictures with 6 colors.
Epson also brought entirely new pigment-inks to the market when 2000P was released,
with these inks and just the right paper, Epson promises printing results that lasts...

Pros: design and picture quality
Cons: Price can be scary

This printer will simply blow you away. The design is twenty times better than the Epson Stylus Photo 2000. What a difference a "P" makes.

This is a revolutionary new printer produced by Epson. Yes another printer. This damn company makes way...

Pros: Great pic's, wide carriage for 11"x14"'s
Cons: Archival Ink problems. Hard to find replacement color cartridges.

The Epson 1270 appeared to offer it all: vivid, 1440dpi near-photo quality outputs, speedy printing, a wide carriage that can print 11"x14" enlargements, easy setup, etc...it even offered a manufacturer's claim of archival inks that wouldn't fade over...

Pros: Beautiful picture perfect printing using Epson glossy photo paper.
Cons: The price of over $300.

This is a perfect printer for all your digital photo printing. There are a variety of resolutions to choose from to give you the picture quality you want. The resolutions are 1440 x 720 dpi, 720 x 720 dpi, 360 x 360 dpi and 180 x 180 dpi.

...

Pros: Quality of prints are quite dramatic if used with the right papers. Sleek industrial design.
Cons: Expensive to maintain. Slow. Unavailability of inks.

The draw to this printer, of course, is the fact that it uses archival inks which Epson claims will last upward of 200 years in normal light conditions. While I don't believe that I will be around for even 100 years, I was drawn to the paper options and...

Pros: Fantastic photo prints, and very quiet.
Cons: Costly paper and ink, and not much paper to choose from by Epson

Strengths

Quiet operation, quick output, high quality resolution prints that beat conventional prints hands down everytime.

Weaknesses

Reported Orange fading problem causes concern over reported and...

Pros: beautiful, fast, clear photo printing
Cons: cartridges can be hard to find

I have said it before and I'll say it again, I love Epson printers. The SP1270 is no exception. A couple of weeks ago, our well-used (read: abused) SC850 finally quit printing red. (It is still being utilized for b&w printing.) Since the printer was...

Pros: Wide Format
Cons: Color shifts in output in as little as 24 hours!

This is the printer I almost bought. I have an ALps 5000 (dye sub) printer which died after only 100 or so photos were printed out on it in about 14 months (thought the photos were great looking, best I ever saw). I will write a review on it later....

Pros: amazing picture quality at good value
Cons: not found any yet, for home use. Not quite good enough for production work - stick to dye sub for that

I have used a number of color printers over many years. These have included Epson Stylus Color 800, Canon BJC4200, all the way up to dye sublimation and thermal wax printsetters. The home printer I use for drafting (another Canon) finally gave up the...

Pros: Highly Detailed Prints
Cons: Cost

One of my best friends works for Epson and from time to time he hooks me up with ink cartridges for my Stylus 740 and other trinkets with the Epson logo firmly attached. When he suggested to me that I purchase the Epson Stylus Photo 2000P to get better...
