Pros: Honestly not very many, fair quality.
Cons: Ink thirsty, only Epson paper, error prone.

I wish I had read the reviews here first. Initially I thought this would be a good buy not only because of Epson's reputation but also because they seem to use inexpensive cartridges. Turns out those inexpensive cartridges are mighty small...

Pros: Great Prints
Cons: INK INK INK, Noisy, Slow

Uses ink like no other. After going through two printers (both lexmark) I finally got a photo quality printer. I wished I knew how much ink it used before I had bought it. This is not the printer to buy if you print a lot of papers and not so many...

Pros: Great little printer for the money!!
Cons: noisy, ink usage

This is my third Epson printer but my first photo. I'm used to the noise, cleaning printheads, speed, and various other Epson quirks. The Epson 820 photo makes fantastic prints from my digital camera and also off the photo CD that I get with my...

Pros: affordable
Cons: inkjet cartridges clog easily

I purchased this printer specifically to print digital pictures (I use a Panasonic KXP-6500 laser printer for text printing). Therefore I'll only comment on the photo printing. The good news is that the printer and maintenance costs are very low. I got...

Pros: Beautiful print-outs, close to laser-quality text with proper maintenance.
Cons: Paper-handling--it has trouble with large volumes of sheets, and that can sometimes damage the printhead.

I've had my share of Epson printers, and I prefer them for my main use: printing photos. When I saw the opportunity to grab one of these babies from Epson's web site for $50, I jumped at the chance. I actually didn't open up the box and use the ...

Pros: Cheap
Cons: Noisy, ink heads clog excessively, paper feed unreliable

I had two of these and regret ever having to use the units. Not only did the heads clog up excessively and waste ink ... I wasted expensive label and print paper. Both units are now in the trash. Was told later by a computer science grad that the whole...

Pros: DEEP, BOLD, VIVID, DETAILED PHOTOS
Cons: Text is not the highest level, though is satisfactory

I'm a photographer, and I love good prints (like everyone), and this printer is unsurpassed in anything under $100, and better than an HP or Lexmark at photos at any price. Really. You just need to use high quality paper (I use Epson brand, which is no mo ...

Pros: Print quality - when it works.
Cons: Clogs, smears, expensive ink wasted on cleaning.

It clogs, it smears, it won't print well on generics and ink is really expensive. I am going through my second printer and going to RMA it soon. Stay away from those low-end models. I tried everything in the world to prevent it from clogging - did not ...

Pros: Good quality
Cons: Only works with Epson paper. Ink is very expensive and runs out quickly.

I have an Epson Photo 820 and find that it is almost too expensive to even use. I only use it for a few photos now and then. I have a Samsung laser printer I use for most of my printing. The EPSON ink is very expensive as is the necessary Epson papers....

Pros: Inexpensive, 6-Color System
Cons: High Ink Usage, Poor Mechanics, Poor Print Quality

Let me preface this review by saying that I own one. I have owned two Epson printers in the past an ...

Pros: Very crisp color photos, clean text, very reliable unit at a low price
Cons: Wish controls were in front

This is a great printer for the price. It doesn't have all the fancies and best that it doesn't. Wha ...

Pros: Great picture photos
Cons: A little noisy

The Epson 820 printer was recommended to me by a dear friend. She kept telling me that I must have ...

Pros: Simply gorgeous borderless photos
Cons: Expensive ink, slow, clogging may be a problem.

Update Sept 1 2003 Having left the printer unused for about two weeks, I found some clogging ...

Pros: It makes a handy punching bag!
Cons: Its too cumbersome to fit into my kitchen garbage can.

Just trust me this is a terrible printer that prints beautifully once or twice then sucks your ink(a ...

Pros: Cheap, Great photos when works
Cons: dust kills it, clogged heads, uses too much ink

This is my second Epson printer. The first one, photo-870 had to be dumped because its heads got clo ...
