| ironbar's Full Review: Epson Stylus Photo 900 Inkjet Printer |
Hi folks! Went shopping for a new printer to replace my aging HP. Started here, read lots of reviews on ZDNet and CNet. I was having a hard time with it because there didn't seem to be a good all-around performer. I really loved my Epson Perfection Scanner and so was leaning toward Epson for the printer too, but the reviews I read for other Epson printers were good but not great. Until I ran across a review for the 900. Apparently it's only been out a short time which may explain why I had a hard time getting much info on it.
So I decided to pull the trigger and bought it. It was well within my price range, and it had a $30.00 rebate on it when you buy some printable CD-R's, which this prints on! That was one of the main reasons I went for the Epson. I am going to use this feature alot. Just printed my 1st one today in fact and it turned out awesome! Check out this URL http://ironbar.freeyellow.com/CD1.jpg to see my first ever attempt!
The text speed is a little slow, so if you're into printing a high volume of text documents, you might want to look into something else. Text sharpness could be a bit better too. But these were not highest on my priority list. The photo printing is out of this world though! Clear, crisp, and bright. And again, CD printing is way cool too!
The printer comes also with some optional software that's easy to use, including the CD printing. It doesn't have slots for memory card from digital camera's. You'd have to upgrade to the 925 for that. (The 925 BTW didn't get very good reviews, mainly for the slow print speeds and text printing issues).
Anyway, I'm very happy with my purchase!
