Epson Stylus® C80 InkJet Printer

Pros: Fast, sturdy exterior
Cons: Expensive ink, heavy, won't print if runs out of any color, won't use generic cartridges

On the positive side, this inkjet printer is very fast. On the negative side, the printer uses ink up very fast, and the ink can be very expensive. Also, you will not be able to print at all if you run out of one color. For example, if you run out ...

Pros: Fast, cheaper ink than HP
Cons: Text quality is less than exceptional, loud, fairly bulky

I am a law student. That means that I print out roughly 200 pages a day. These pages are 99.9% text so I wanted a printer that was fast, reliable and good text quality. This printer got one out of three. It is fast I will give it that. However the text...

Pros: Photo ink lasts 75 years
Cons: 1. slowwwwwww ---- 2. many annoying dialog windows--- 3. sucks on a network

My tech friends and I have a saying about printers:
"People who have HP's never think about their printers."
Other printer owners, however, lump their printers in with all of their regular PC problems. Now I'm one of those people.

Pros: Very fast, quiet printer
Cons: Ink Costs & Slightly Washed out Prints

I purchased the C80 4 months ago and so far I've been very pleased. I bought this to replace an Epson Sylus600 which I destroyed by trying to clean it myself. Don't try this unless your a pro.

Text printing at the "plain paper" mode is...

Pros: Fast, cheap, great quality, Mac/PC compatible, USB, Easy to use, nice design
Cons: Big Footprint, no cable included

My first printer was an HP-560C. I have since gone through another HP722C printer, and have now come to try an Epson printer.

My first impression of the Epson C80 was:
Eh..

I saw it at CompUSA, and it looked awfully big for a...

Pros: Fast, quality printing for any project
Cons: The printer uses its ink very quickly

I have had my Epson Stylus C80 for a few months now and I love it. It was easy to hook up to my computer with little advanced knowledge of computer systems, but did require some extra purchasing of USB cables to complete the project in addition to the...

Pros: Fast print speed, waterproof ink
Cons: Noisy, large footprint, high ink use

The Epson Stylus C80 was named PC Magazine's Editor's Choice for midrange inkjets, which (along with price) was one of the primary reasons I chose it to replace my ancient HP Deskjet 540. After using it for about a month, I've found that while it's a...

Pros: Fast, very good plain paper photo printing
Cons: Very poor glossy photo printing, clumsy-looking

Epson has been my printer of choice for photo printing on glossy paper since the Stylus 500 (had two of them) and then the Stylus 700. I've always gotten photo prints on glossy paper that people can't believe came from a computer printer. When drivers...

Pros: improvements over previous models, speed, quality, low level of noise
Cons: price, bulky design, memory hogging drivers

The Epson Stylus C80 is Epson's newest printer for the home office/office market. It is one of epson's top of the line inkjet printers.

I have had 3 different Epson inkjet printers over the past few years, and my experiences with them have...

Pros: Separate ink cartrigdes, very quiet, very fast, high-quality, solid construction, reliable, long-lasting ink, never jams
Cons: Does not come with a cable, sometimes ink does not dry correctly on photo paper

Boy was I pleasantly surprised with this printer. My other Epson experiences (the 777 and the Photo 780) were not so good. However, Epson was thinking clearly when they produced this printer.

First of all, this printer is QUIET! (unlike the...

Pros: Good Value, separate ink cartridges, Windows XP Drivers, Fast
Cons: Large footprint

First let me say that I am predisposed to HP printers based on work experience. I bought this printer based on little information based on the specifications and the excellent price. I have not been dissapointed. I have used this printer at home for...

Pros: Great Print Quality Speedy SPEEDY Printing 4 cartridges instead of 2
Cons: Printheads easily become dirty; quickly Consumables blindingly expensive

This printer has printed reliably for me for almost a year with great quality and high dpi. But my experience has been marred with problems. The printer often mistakes 2 pieces of paper for 1. Its printheads become dirty every week, losing about 5% of...

Pros: Fast,Great Photos,Inexpensive to use,Sturdy
Cons: no cable supplied

I purchased this printer to create 30 CD Jewel case covers for a special Christmas project. I ended up printing 75 photo pages at about 75% coverage and only used half of two ink tanks and a quarter of another! The printer was easy to set up and install...

Pros: Quiet, good text printing performance
Cons: Photo printing not overwhelming

I purchased this printer earlier this week to replace my aged and now malfunctioning Epson Stylus Colour 600. After reading the reviews on this and other websites, I headed to the local Costco and bought the Epson C80.

I read reviews on the...

Pros: Easy to use
Cons: Wastes ink, frequent interior clean-up of ink messes must be performed with no instructions

Today I removed the screws forever and purposely broke off the top cover from my Epson C-80. It worked! This booger of a printer must routinely have its multiple interior ink messes cleaned. I'll bet all these great reviews I see were written BEFORE this ...
